Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Body Image is especially a problem in young adolescents, but it sometimes persists through life. I explore how a person's body has served them well. Body image is also sometimes an issue for non-binary and trans. people and can show up as Body Dysphoria.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I take a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to supporting clients struggling with body image concerns. I focus on understanding how body image develops in the context of experiences, relationships, and societal pressures, rather than simply trying to “fix” it. Together, we explore patterns of self-criticism, shame, and avoidance while cultivating self-compassion and acceptance.
I integrate somatic, parts-informed, and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients reconnect with their bodies, regulate emotional responses, and build healthier relationships with themselves. My approach is relational and client-centered, emphasizing understanding, empowerment, and practical tools to support lasting change in how clients feel, move, and relate to their bodies.

I help clients struggling with body image develop a more compassionate and connected relationship with themselves. Our work focuses on identifying patterns, untangling beliefs, and defining and building sense of self-worth. I offer a space that is affirming and centered on your lived experience.

Amanda Etienne
Psychologist, Psy.D
For a lot of women, how you feel in your body has less to do with the body itself and more to do with what you learned to make it mean - about worth, control, or safety. We work on separating those things, so your relationship with your body can be based on how it actually feels to live in it, not on old rules you never agreed to.

Carolyne Mburu-Gerena
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Struggles with body image can affect confidence, relationships, and overall mental health. I work with individuals experiencing negative self-perception, shame, or persistent dissatisfaction with their appearance. Treatment focuses on addressing underlying emotional patterns, improving self-acceptance, and developing healthier ways of relating to one’s body and self-worth.
