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.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Many people struggle with body image because of the messages they have received from family, peers, culture, and social media about how they "should" look. In therapy, we'll explore how these experiences have shaped the way you view yourself and work toward developing a more compassionate and accepting relationship with your body. Together, we'll also examine your relationship with food and identify sustainable, balanced approaches that support both your physical and emotional well-being, helping to reduce the self-criticism and distress that often accompany body image concerns.

Richmond is Virginia's state capital and a city confronting its identity as the former capital of the Confederacy — a historical weight that has made racial equity, community healing, and the legacy of slavery active and ongoing conversations in clinical, academic, and public life. The city's significant African American community, its rapidly growing Latino population, and a large university sector anchored by Virginia Commonwealth University collectively shape diverse and evolving therapy demand. VCU Health and Bon Secours Richmond Health System provide major institutional mental health resources, while VCU's extensive psychology, counseling, and social work programs supply significant clinical training to the community. Richmond's growing arts and creative economy, rapid gentrification of historically Black neighborhoods, and strong LGBTQ+ community each contribute distinct dimensions to its therapy culture.
