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.

Mountain Crest Counseling Services, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCSW, and Register Associates
The way you feel about your body can have a powerful impact on confidence, relationships, mood, and everyday life. Struggling with body image may involve self-criticism, comparison, shame, perfectionism, or feeling disconnected from your body. Therapy provides a compassionate, judgment-free space to explore these experiences and understand the beliefs and patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
Outpatient therapy can help you develop a healthier relationship with your body, strengthen self-compassion, challenge negative thought patterns, and build confidence that isn’t dependent on appearance. Together, we can work toward greater acceptance, emotional well-being, and a more peaceful relationship with yourself.

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.

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.

Elyse Gardner, MA, LPCA
Pre-Licensed Professional, LPCA
Many clients come to me with a strained relationship to their bodies, managing appearance rather than actually inhabiting it. My work uses somatic and gestalt approaches to help you reconnect with your body as a source of information and wisdom, not something to control. The goal isn't a different body, it's a different relationship with the one you have.

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.
