Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Diet culture has permeated our ideals and expectations of ourselves and most particularly can inform the relationships with have with food and movement. I work with clients from a HAES and intuitive understanding of how to embrace our bodies, how support out bodies to rest and replenish adaptively and how to frame nourishment and movement as affirming rather than punitive.

Christine Sparacino
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with clients to help them learn self-compassion and to see themselves as they really are. With many forces attacking our sense of self and our body image, therapy can be a helpful tool to love ourselves, correct our misperceptions, and appreciate the body we have.

As a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in body image, I provide compassionate and effective treatment for clients dealing with anxiety related to perceived physical flaws that affect their daily lives. I have extensive experience with body dysmorphic disorder and completed my dissertation on men's body esteem. My approach, grounded in evidence-based therapies, is tailored to address the unique needs of each individual.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Especially in my work with transgender and gender-nonconforming (TGNC) community, body image is often in context to what we are processing. Body image work can look a variety of ways, such as deconstructing and healing internalizations of fat phobia, transphobia, and European body ideals. I like to make it clear - I am a firm believer in the Healthy at Every Size movement and we can utilize this space to find a path towards connecting your mind and your authentic and congruent body.

Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Body image affects far more than how you feel when you look in a mirror. It can shape confidence, sexuality, intimacy, relationships, self-worth, and how comfortable you feel taking up space in the world. I help clients explore the messages and experiences that have shaped their relationship with their bodies, challenge shame and unrealistic expectations, and develop a more compassionate and authentic sense of embodiment. The goal isn’t to convince yourself that you must love every part of your body—it’s to help your body become a place you can live in with greater acceptance, confidence, and freedom.
