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.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
As someone who works around sexuality one of the most common issues I confront is body image issues and Body Dismorphia. I work with many Trans people in various stages of gender transformation who have issues with truly stepping into their new gender identity, feeling comfortable in their bodies. Using both hypnosis as well as hands on work, I help them more fully embrace their new identities, love their bodies more.

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
If you’re constantly at war with your reflection or caught in a cycle of self-criticism, you’re not alone. We live in a world full of unrealistic standards and loud opinions about how we should look—and it can take a real toll on how we feel in our own skin.
I work with clients to untangle their relationship with their bodies using compassion-based therapy, mindfulness practices, and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work. My approach isn’t about “fixing” your body—it’s about healing how you relate to it. We’ll explore where the harsh inner voice came from, learn to quiet it, and reconnect you with the values and experiences that matter far more than a number on a scale or the shape of a mirror image.
As a long-time psychologist (and a human in this culture too), I know that body image struggles are deeply personal—and deeply valid. I bring humor, warmth, and evidence-based tools to help you move toward body respect, self-compassion, and a healthier, more peaceful relationship with yourself.
You deserve to feel at home in your body—and I’d be honored to help you find your way back there.
