Tracey Knows
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I help individuals struggling with body image issues develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with themselves. Negative body image can impact self-esteem, mental health, and daily life, but it doesn’t have to define you. My approach focuses on uncovering the deeper beliefs that fuel body dissatisfaction, challenging harmful thought patterns, and fostering self-acceptance. Through mindfulness, self-compassion practices, and evidence-based techniques, I support clients in shifting from self-criticism to self-trust. You deserve to feel at home in your body—let’s work together to create a more positive and empowered sense of self.

Natalie Campbell
Psychologist, PsyD; LLC
Body image issues may or may not be related to an eating disorder...or disordered eating. Emotional eating. As we work through shame, regrets, and a sense of low self-esteem, the body image will most likely improve.

Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Life Coach, Certified Betrayal Trauma & Sex/Porn Addiction Coach, Certified Trauma Healing Coach, IITAP, ADOH
Betrayal, infidelity, pornography use, and sex addiction can deeply affect body image and self-esteem. Betrayed partners may struggle with comparison, feelings of inadequacy, or questioning their attractiveness and worth. A Safe Place To Share coaching can help you rebuild self-confidence, develop a healthier relationship with your body, and separate your self-worth from your partner’s sexual behaviors or choices.

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.

Meredith Luttrell
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC, Clinical Supervisor
Struggling with body image goes so much deeper than how you look in the mirror — it touches how you move through the world, how you relate to others, and how worthy of care you feel. I work from a trauma-informed, weight-inclusive lens to help clients explore the roots of their relationship with their body and begin building something that feels more like peace than war. You deserve to feel at home in your own skin.
