Body Image therapists in South Riding, Virginia VA
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.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Especially in my work with transgender and gender-nonconforming (TGNC) community, body image is often in context to what we are processing. Body image work can look a variety of ways, such as deconstructing and healing internalizations of fat phobia, transphobia, and European body ideals. I like to make it clear - I am a firm believer in the Healthy at Every Size movement and we can utilize this space to find a path towards connecting your mind and your authentic and congruent body.

Dr. Alexavery Hawkins
Psychologist, PhD
I help people with body image concerns create flexibility as they heal their relationship with their body and move away from thin ideal/diet culture so they can soften their perfectionism and live a more full and joyous life. I also enjoy addressing gender dysphoria in treatment and helping clients find ways to affirm their gender identity and start to see and appreciate their true selves.
