Summit Counseling Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, ATR-BC
Body image is addressed in individual counseling and historical and present day roots are explored. It is usually a part of a larger pattern of self-esteem and use of counseling to develop a healthy relationship can help people feel improvements in terms of self-acceptance and self-awareness which can impact body image. We typically will refer out if there are eating disorder symptoms outside of our scope. There are often historical roots to body image which can safely be explored in the counseling process.

LEGACY MENTAL HEALTH CONSULTING SERVICES
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Legacy Mental Health Consulting Services offers compassionate, evidence‑based support for individuals struggling with body image concerns, self‑criticism, and the emotional weight of not feeling comfortable in their own skin. We help clients explore the thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that shape how they see themselves, while building healthier, more affirming ways of relating to their bodies. Through approaches such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and psychodynamic insight, clients learn to challenge negative self‑talk, reduce comparison, and cultivate confidence rooted in self‑acceptance rather than appearance. Whether body image struggles stem from past experiences, social pressures, or internal expectations, we provide a safe, empowering space to heal, grow, and reconnect with a sense of worth that goes far beyond the mirror.

A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Struggling with body image can affect so much more than how you feel when you look in the mirror. It can show up as constantly comparing yourself to other women, criticizing your appearance, avoiding photos or certain clothes, seeking reassurance, or believing you would finally feel confident if you could just change something about your body. I work with women who are tired of feeling like their worth is tied to how they look or how others perceive them. Together, we’ll explore the experiences, messages, and deeper wounds that have shaped the way you see yourself while working toward greater self-compassion, confidence, and acceptance. My goal is not to convince you to love every part of your body every day, but to help you build a relationship with yourself where your appearance no longer determines your worth.

Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Body image concerns can impact far more than appearance. They often influence self-worth, confidence, relationships, and daily life. Whether you struggle with negative self-talk, comparison, shame, or difficulty accepting your body, therapy can help you develop a healthier relationship with yourself rooted in self-compassion, authenticity, and respect rather than criticism.

Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Body image concerns often extend beyond appearance and can be shaped by deeper experiences related to identity, self-worth, and external expectations. Many women find themselves in a cycle of self-criticism or comparison that impacts confidence and daily life. In our work together, we focus on understanding how these patterns developed and building a more compassionate and sustainable relationship with your body that supports overall well-being rather than constant evaluation.

Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an Internal Family Systems (IFS) body image concerns are understood as the result of protective parts (e.g., critical or perfectionistic parts) trying to manage deeper feelings of shame, rejection, or inadequacy. Therapy focuses on helping clients access Self to approach these parts with curiosity and compassion, rather than judgment or avoidance. As protective parts feel understood and burdens are unburdened, clients can develop a more accepting and connected relationship with their bodies.

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.

Hampton is an independent city on the Virginia Peninsula, home to Langley Air Force Base and NASA Langley Research Center, two of the most significant federal installations in Virginia, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped by a large military and federal civilian workforce alongside a historically significant Black community centered on Hampton University, one of the nation's leading historically Black universities. The intersection of military mental health needs—trauma, PTSD, transition—with the academic and identity-related concerns of an HBCU community makes Hampton a city with a particularly diverse and meaningful therapy landscape. Sentara and Riverside Health System provide behavioral health services in the Hampton Roads area, and a private therapy sector serves both military-connected and civilian residents. Common therapy concerns include trauma and military transition, racial identity and community belonging, anxiety, depression, and the stresses of federal and classified employment.
