Debra Younger
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LPC, LMHC, CCPT
Through an Internal Family Systems lens, how we view our Body Image, is usually a result of early childhood trauma or attachment wounds.
Using IFS we are able to identify the source of the wounds or trauma and heal them, which allows us to create a more positive Body Image.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
How you feel about your body is rarely actually about your body. It's about control, worth, safety, and the stories you've absorbed from your family, your culture, and every relationship that ever made you feel like you were too much or not enough. At Simple Empathy we work beneath the surface of body image struggles to address the deeper narrative — who told you that you weren't enough, and why did you believe them? Direct, honest and depth-oriented work for people ready to stop fighting their own reflection.

Mackson Psychology
Psychologist, Samantha Mackson, Psy.D.
Body image concerns can affect how you see yourself, your confidence, and how comfortable you feel in your own skin. I help clients work through negative self-talk, comparison, perfectionism, and body dissatisfaction while developing a more balanced and compassionate relationship with their bodies.

Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
Here's a concise therapist-directory version:
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with their bodies. Many individuals struggle with body dissatisfaction, negative self-talk, appearance-related anxiety, emotional eating, perfectionism, or the impact of societal and cultural pressures. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, improve self-esteem, cultivate body acceptance, and focus on overall well-being rather than appearance. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and at peace in their own skin.
