Bethany Anderson
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Body image can be such a tough concept to navigate in a world consumed with diet culture and specific standards of beauty. Together, we will challenge those standards and learn strategies to build yourself up rather than tear yourself down.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
We live in a culture that values certain body types more than others. This reality often brings feelings of shame for people of all body types that do not feel they can live up to these impossible beauty standards. Shame surrounding issues of body image lead to depression, anxiety, self harm and relational difficulties. It is my goal to help patients recognize these harmful thought processes and habits that damage self esteem and ones relationship to their own body. I believe that mitigating these beliefs and patters and lead to happier and healthier lives for those who wish to embark on the journey of body positivity.

Rachel Ann Dine
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LPC
The relationship we have with our body and self-image can change over time. Comparison, feeling hyper focused on looking a certain way, and even messages you may have received growing up about your body can all go into affecting our view of self. I take a compassionate approach to understanding and helping you feel more confident (and compassionate!) with who you are on both an emotional and physical level.

Dr. Chiara Simeone-DiFrancesco
Psychologist, PhD
This culture today is totally messed up with regard to the importance it places on body image. I can work to help you understand where you got stuck here, and to heal it. Each person is beautiful, and what your shell looks like does not determine whether you are going to be securely loved. Come and learn what does determine that and learn to "live in your skin" what you really are in the inside!

Heather Wilcox, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW
Due to unrealistic cultural expectations, many if not most women have times in their life when they struggle with the way they feel about their body. We work together to identify negative messages that have become internalized over the years and replace them with more realistic, positive ones.
