If your body image is taking up too much space in your mind and life, it's time to talk.

If you've spent years feeling at odds with your body, you're not alone—and you're not broken. Body image issues can quietly shape how you see yourself, your relationships, and your confidence. Therapy can help you unpack all of it. I help people who are ready to stop the mental spiral, quiet the inner critic, and build a more peaceful relationship with their body.

The Body Positive and HAES movements promote size diversity and body acceptance for people of all identities.

We all have tough body days, but a positive body image starts with respecting your natural shape and replacing criticism with compassion and acceptance.

ARE UNABLE TO ACCEPT A COMPLIMENT?

Are overly affected in their moods by how they think they look

CONSTANTLY COMPARE THEMSELVES TO OTHERS?

Only post edited and/or re-shaped photos on social media or follow accounts that glorify thinness

Call themselves disparaging names: “Gross,” “Disgusting” or “Ugly”

Attempt to create a “perfect” image Seek constant reassurance from others that their looks are acceptable.Consistently distort their body or body parts Believe that if they could attain their goal weight or size, they would be able to accept themselves. Subordinate their enjoyment of life’s pleasures or pursuit of personal goals to their drive for thinness
Equate thinness with beauty, success, perfection, happiness, confidence, and self-control. Compartmentalize their body into parts (thighs, stomach, buttocks, hips, etc.) rather than feeling connected to their whole body. Have an ever-present fear of gaining weight, regardless of size. Have an overriding sense of shame about themselves and their body.

Building resilience

How I Work with Body Image

No matter your size or shape, it is possible to make peace with your body. In our work together, we focus on body neutrality and acceptance—not the pursuit of an unrealistic ideal. I help clients understand how diet culture, weight stigma, and early experiences shape body image and self-worth. Research shows that body image is much more closely tied to self-esteem than to appearance. That means healing your relationship with your body starts from the inside out.

In sessions, I use approaches like CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to challenge negative thought patterns, foster self-compassion, and shift the focus away from weight toward values, identity, and well-being. We also explore practical strategies—like eliminating “diet talk,” unlearning fatphobia, and redefining what health really means—to support lasting change.

My goal is to help you feel more at home in your body and reclaim the energy spent obsessing over appearance so you can live more fully.
