Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I have worked with many clients struggling with body image, including body dysmorphia, body dysphoria, and eating disorders. Body image is often not really about appearance—it’s about control, shame, identity, trauma, and how we learned to be seen by others. Many people I work with have complicated relationships with their bodies due to trauma, gender identity, cultural pressure, or past experiences of being judged or objectified. In therapy, we focus on changing your relationship with your body from something you fight against into something you can live in with more compassion, safety, and choice.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with body image, I take a compassionate, body-centered approach that invites curiosity rather than judgment. Together, we explore how cultural messages, early experiences, and internalized narratives have shaped the way you relate to your body. Using somatic awareness and parts work, we begin to untangle the protective strategies that may be at play and build a more respectful, connected, and empowered relationship with your body over time.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults who struggle with body image and the ways it can shape self-worth, relationships, and how people move through the world. Difficulties with body image are often bound up with long-standing beliefs, protective strategies, and patterns of self-criticism that develop over time.
My approach draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how these patterns operate internally and what purpose they may serve. Rather than focusing on appearance or symptom reduction, the work centres on understanding the relationship you have with your body and the meanings attached to it. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.
