Sarah Rossmiller
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPCC, LPC
Body image struggles are rarely just about the body — they're tangled up with self-worth, control, and old messages you didn't choose. We work on loosening that grip and finding a more peaceful relationship with yourself.

Ashley Higgins
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you someone who struggles to feel present in their body? Do you feel attuned to your body's cues? Are you tired of always being on a diet? Are you hoping to have a better relationship with food and movement, but unsure how to get there?
Body image struggles can feel so isolating, but you do not have to face them alone. Therapy with me isn’t about judgment or “fixing” your relationship with your body- it's about building insight and practical tools around your body image struggles. Together, we’ll navigate anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, chronic illness, and more- and how ALL of these affect how you feel about your body.

Marcus A. McDuffie Sr.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW-S, BCD
I’m especially interested in helping people who struggle with body image and the challenges that can come with it, including negative self-perception, body dissatisfaction, comparison to others, feeling uncomfortable or critical of your appearance, low self-esteem, and preoccupation with weight, shape, or physical appearance. Therapy can be a safe and supportive place to explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that influence how you see and feel about your body while developing healthier ways to respond to self-criticism, comparison, and unrealistic expectations. Together, we can work toward developing greater self-acceptance, improving your relationship with your body, and building confidence that is not defined by appearance.
I also have experience with depression, anxiety, anger management, couples and family counseling, grief and loss, work and career challenges, PTSD and trauma-focused therapy, stress management, ADHD, and many other therapeutic concerns. My goal is to provide compassionate, personalized care that helps you better understand yourself, build on your strengths, and create meaningful and lasting change.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Body image concerns are some of the most common conversations people have in building a satisfying sexual life. Body image concerns can also deeply affect self-esteem, confidence, emotional well-being, and other relationship dynamics. Couples therapy provides a supportive space to explore the experiences, messages, and pressures that may contribute to negative self-image or self-criticism. Together, couples compassionately discuss the relationship each partner has with their body while addressing the anxiety, shame, perfectionism, or comparison that often accompany body image struggles. Through increased self-awareness and the experience of being known and accepted by their partner, people can begin to feel more grounded, confident, and connected to themselves. When they are more intimately connected to themselves, they are also able to more deeply connect to their partner.

Dr. Jacqueline Bentley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Our social culture has created a nonrealistic standard for the way that we should look. However, instead of viewing these standards as unrealistic and unattainable, we continue to beat ourselves up for falling short of the way we believe we should look. I will strive to help you process through your own thoughts and feelings of body image and help to create a more realistic, and healthy perspective of yourself.
