The Healing Center of West Michigan
Counselor/Therapist
Struggling with how you see your body can affect every part of your life—from self-worth to relationships. At The Healing Center of West Michigan, we use EMDR to uncover and heal the deeper roots of body image distress, such as bullying, appearance-based pressure, or messages of conditional worth. EMDR allows clients to release shame, shift negative self-beliefs, and reconnect with their bodies from a place of compassion and respect. You deserve to feel at home in your body—and we’re here to help you get there.

Rebecca Turner
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, MA Counseling, school counselor K-12th
I believe body image is a huge issue for females and males. I have done a lot of work in this area myself. Helping a client come to a better appreciation and enjoyment of their own body is very rewarding in my work.

Samantha Kingma
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Have you noticed that you haven’t been feeling quite like yourself? Like something feels off, but you’re not exactly sure why? No matter how hard you work, you always feel behind and can't seem to ever catch up on your to-do list. Maybe you keep thinking that you "should" be doing better and you "shouldn't" be struggling this way. You want to be present, calm, and confident, but you aren’t sure how to get there. It is possible for you to feel like yourself again and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there.
I help teens, adults, and couples who are feeling stuck and disconnected to find freedom and relief. I'll collaborate with you to notice the themes and patterns occurring in your life that might be causing problems and then work alongside you to find new options and solutions to address those patterns.
Whether you are experiencing anxiety, dealing with past trauma, relationship difficulties, or just think it might be helpful to talk to someone about how you are feeling, I’d love to talk with you about how I can help. Visit my website to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about whether I might be the right therapist for you.

Elizabeth Shaw-Draves
Limited License Psychologist, MA, LLP
Every human being is different, inside and out. In addition, what is considered the 'perfect' body has varied greatly throughout the ages. My process takes into account the idea that diversity and variation are not only beautiful concept, but necessary in order for humanity to thrive.
