Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients with body image concerns by addressing the self-criticism, comparison, perfectionism, and unrealistic standards that often shape how they see themselves. In therapy, we work on challenging distorted thoughts, reducing shame, and building a more compassionate and realistic relationship with the body. My goal is to help clients focus less on constant self-evaluation and more on overall well-being, confidence, and self-acceptance.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in body image, my treatment approach is grounded in fostering self-acceptance, resilience, and a positive relationship with one's body. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based interventions, I work collaboratively with individuals to challenge negative beliefs and behaviors related to body image. By exploring underlying factors such as societal pressures, past traumas, and internalized messages, we develop personalized strategies to promote self-compassion and enhance body appreciation. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care practices, boundary-setting, and building a supportive social network to reinforce positive body image. My goal is to empower individuals to embrace their bodies with confidence, cultivate holistic well-being, and navigate societal standards with authenticity.

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.

Megan Anderson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Therapist & A Couch is a space rooted in the belief that every part of you belongs. Many people who walk through my door are navigating complicated relationships with their bodies — tender places shaped by comparison, pressure, and old stories that don’t feel like theirs anymore. This struggle often speaks to deeper questions about identity, emotional well-being, and self-worth.
No matter the story someone arrives with, the diagnoses they may carry, or the identities they may hold, we begin with the core human experiences that connect us all — our wishes, fears, wounds, conflicts, patterns, walking contradictions...our messiness. Within these places live the quiet truths that shape who we are. Together, we gently sift through what’s been heavy so you can feel lighter, freer, and more whole.
