Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
Lots of people don’t like their bodies. Maybe abuse or neglect created dissociation, an eating disorder or depression. Body distortions can happen for a variety of reasons, each needing a somewhat different approach. I’m also an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Body image struggles are rarely just about appearance—they are often rooted in messages from culture, family, and trauma. I create a safe space to untangle shame, comparison, and disconnection from your body. Through somatic awareness and culturally centered conversations, we work toward body respect, intuitive eating, and freedom from the weight of external expectations.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Body image is not just personal—it’s shaped by powerful cultural messages about which bodies are acceptable, desirable, and worthy of care. From a young age, many people are exposed to narrow, often Eurocentric and ableist standards that are reinforced through media, family systems, healthcare, and broader societal norms. These messages don’t just stay external—they get internalized. Over time, they can shape how you see yourself, how you treat your body, and even what you believe you deserve. For people in marginalized bodies—whether due to race, size, gender identity, disability, or other identities—these pressures are often more intense, more scrutinized, and more harmful.
At Nour Counseling, we take a deeper approach to body image work. We actively help you unpack the cultural conditioning and dominant narratives that have shaped your beliefs about your body, so you can begin to separate your voice from what you’ve been taught to internalize. We look at how these patterns show up in your daily life—whether that’s body checking, restriction, avoidance, comparison, or harsh self-talk—and build practical, realistic ways to shift them. This might include changing how you engage with social media, setting boundaries around conversations that reinforce harm, reconnecting with your body’s needs, and developing a more grounded, respectful relationship with yourself. This isn’t about forcing body positivity—it’s about helping you step out of inherited narratives and move toward something that actually feels like yours.

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.
