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.

Taylor Esworthy
Marriage and Family Therapist, PMFT
Struggles with body image can run deep and often go beyond appearance. They can impact self-worth, relationships, and how you move through the world. I work with clients to gently explore these patterns, challenge harsh inner dialogue, and build a more compassionate and connected relationship with their body.

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.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
As someone who works around sexuality one of the most common issues I confront is body image issues and Body Dismorphia. I work with many Trans people in various stages of gender transformation who have issues with truly stepping into their new gender identity, feeling comfortable in their bodies. Using both hypnosis as well as hands on work, I help them more fully embrace their new identities, love their bodies more.
