When You Don’t Feel at Home in Your Body
You might spend hours thinking about food, weight, or how your body looks — yet still feel disconnected or never “enough.” Maybe you compare yourself to others, replay comments you’ve heard about your appearance, or struggle to enjoy things you love because you’re too aware of how you look doing them.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. So many people — especially women — carry an invisible burden of shame, guilt, and self-criticism around their bodies. What starts as “wanting to be healthier” can turn into a constant inner battle. In our work together, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you quiet those harsh inner voices and reconnect with your body in a kinder, more trusting way. You’ll learn tools to:
Challenge the perfectionistic thoughts that feed self-criticism
Understand what drives body-focused fears and anxiety
Build new habits of self-acceptance and calm
Experience genuine comfort and confidence in your skin
Our sessions blend science, mindfulness, and compassion. You’ll have weekly check-ins to track progress and brief daily exercises to practice new patterns — because real change happens between sessions.
I BELIEVE:
Your body is not a problem to fix — it’s your home, your history, and your ally.
Confidence grows when we practice kindness toward ourselves, not punishment.
Comparison steals joy, but connection restores it.
You deserve to live fully — wear the clothes you love, eat without guilt, and show up in your life as you are.
Healing becomes easier when we add a little humor and humanity along the way.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

Dr. Kelly Rees
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, Sexologist
Our feelings about our body has such an impact on wellbeing, and in Western culture it is difficult to have an objective view. I work with people to shift their focus from appearances and toward the ability of their body to connect to others, to experience pleasure and comfort. I encourage my clients to take a broader focus on themselves and grow self-compassion for their body.

Linda Schartman, MA LPC
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
Body image challenges manifest in many ways and affect us on every level. It is uncomfortable to talk about these experiences, so my primary focus to start is helping you find language for them. Then, we work on deconstructing unhelpful narratives and repairing our relationships with our bodies. This process is not easy and I utilize a variety of interventions.

Tycee Belcastro
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT, CSTIP
Living in the Western U.S., you’re probably all too familiar with the constant barrage of ads and messages telling you what “attractive” looks like—and how that somehow equals being worthy or lovable. If you’ve been through trauma, your body might feel like it’s holding onto that pain, making you feel disconnected from parts of yourself. I get how hard that can be. Healing your body image is deep, personal work—an inside job. It’s about sorting through your emotions, discovering your emotional issues and learning to deal with them, shaking off society’s unrealistic standards, and healing those wounds. My goal is to help you reconnect with your body, not as something merely to “perform” or prove your worth, but as a source of joy, energy, health, and even a sacred connection to your spirit.

Malama Counseling, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Body image is the subjective, internal representation of one’s own physical self, not necessarily reflecting reality, but rather influenced by social media, culture, and personal experience. Society often promote negative body image that can lead to unhealthy behaviors like eating disorders. I promote positive body image which fosters self-esteem and self-worth.
