MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Often times, the way we attribute our self worth is through our body image overlooking our whole selves leading to negative perceptions and low self-esteem. By integrating hypnotherapy, you can overcome your body image challenges and embrace a more balanced and fulfilling life. The transformation achieved through this therapeutic process not only enhances your self-esteem but also contributes to your overall emotional and mental well-being.

Reshma Rampersad
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you are fighting your body for existing, relief cannot come fast enough. My mindful approach allows space to once again build a relationship with your body that is more validating than critical. Using a combination of ACT techniques I help you learn to accept and love your body just the way it is. You are enough as you are.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you struggle with body image, you may find yourself constantly comparing your appearance to others, focusing on perceived flaws, or feeling dissatisfied no matter what you do. You might avoid certain clothes, social situations, or intimacy because you don’t feel comfortable in your own skin. Even when others reassure you, it can be hard to truly believe or feel okay about how you look.
I help clients change not just how they think about their bodies, but how they experience themselves. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify and challenge the distorted thought patterns that drive self-criticism and comparison. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we work at a deeper level to shift the emotional responses and internal images that keep you stuck in a negative self-view. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you step out of the struggle with appearance and reconnect with your values, confidence, and sense of self-worth.
What’s often missing isn’t awareness—you may already recognize that you’re being hard on yourself. What’s missing is a way to interrupt the automatic negative lens through which you see yourself and replace it with a more balanced, compassionate, and realistic perspective. Without that deeper shift, the same patterns of self-judgment continue, regardless of changes in weight, appearance, or external validation.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready for something different. If you’re willing to approach this in a new way, I can help you feel more comfortable in your own skin, reduce self-criticism, and develop a healthier, more confident relationship with your body.
