Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Struggles with body image are often tied to shame, trauma, and the pressures of diet culture. In addition to IFS and mindfulness, I draw on specialized training in Intuitive Eating, Health at Every Size (HAES), Attuned Eating, and Body Trust approaches. These frameworks recognize how dieting and cultural messages can fuel disordered eating patterns such as restriction, bingeing, or cycles of shame. Therapy focuses on building self-compassion, reconnecting with body wisdom, and creating a healthier, more sustainable relationship with food and self. I provide diagnostic clarity when body image concerns overlap with eating disorders, depression, or trauma.

Brittany Washington
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
I support clients in healing their relationship with their bodies by creating a safe, affirming space to explore the impact of body image, self-worth, and societal expectations. Drawing from lived experience and a body-inclusive, trauma-informed lens, I help clients challenge internalized shame, develop self-compassion, and reconnect with their bodies in empowering ways. Whether you're navigating chronic illness, weight stigma, or disordered eating patterns, my approach is centered on honoring your story and helping you build a more accepting and compassionate view of yourself.

Struggling with body image can impact your self-esteem and well-being. I work with clients to explore the underlying beliefs that contribute to negative body image and help them develop a healthier relationship with their body. Using evidence-based therapies like CBT and ACT, we’ll focus on self-acceptance, reducing harmful comparisons, and building confidence in who you are beyond physical appearance.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
We live in a culture that values certain body types more than others. This reality often brings feelings of shame for people of all body types that do not feel they can live up to these impossible beauty standards. Shame surrounding issues of body image lead to depression, anxiety, self harm and relational difficulties. It is my goal to help patients recognize these harmful thought processes and habits that damage self esteem and ones relationship to their own body. I believe that mitigating these beliefs and patters and lead to happier and healthier lives for those who wish to embark on the journey of body positivity.
