Body Image Issues

I wrote a program called (every)Body Needs which draws on the research to shape a positive body image and help heal a negative body image. Body image has long been my work of passion and I love taking my messages out into the community and sharing them with clients in our personal sessions. The truth is: you are worthy of LOVING the body you're in - just as it is.

As a sex therapist specializing in body image issues, I help individuals develop a healthier relationship with their bodies. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to address negative self-perceptions and promote body positivity. By fostering self-acceptance and confidence, I support clients in overcoming the barriers that body image concerns can create in their sexual and emotional lives.

We live in a fatphobic society, and diet culture only makes it worse. It's hard to feel good about yourself when we receive messages to NOT be happy with ourselves, to always be striving for more. If you struggle with feeling comfortable in your own skin, I can help you build body tolerance. It's OK if you're not feeling positive about your body! I've treated restrictive eating patterns, binge-eating, and symptoms of Bulimia in my practice. Let's get you to a place of acceptance.

Body image struggles are common, yet painful. I support individuals with exploring where their body image struggles are coming from and developing practicing to build a more compassionate relationship to the body.

Most of us have felt, at one point or another, that our body's size or shape is somehow wrong. For those of us who identify as fat, or whose bodies are otherwise considered atypical, it can feel impossible to distinguish our authentic feelings about our bodies from the forces that profit off of our self-criticism. I approach our work from a fat-positive, all-bodies-are-good-bodies perspective that prioritizes individual bodily autonomy and experience.

Alyson is an eating disorder specialist and understands the complexity of the relationship with one's body image. There are so many factors that impact our relationship with our body from diet culture to weight bias and racism. In therapy, Alyson believes it is crucial to explore the underlying causes of body image concerns and develop a more weight neutral stance to identity.

As a weight inclusive provider, I acknowledge the hardships many (if not most) folks face due to the societal promotion and acceptance of fatphobia and weight stigma. I aim to support clients in finding body neutrality/acceptance in order to take space in this world and focus on living a life without feeling ashamed or the need to control your physical appearance. This may involve exploring and processing our own forms of internalized narratives and rewrite our script to live more authentically.

Talia has spent her career as a therapist primarily counseling people experiencing body image issues and eating disorders. While she primarily works with a young adult age group, she is happy to take on clients outside of that age range as well.

You are tired of hating your body and the rollercoaster of dieting and weight loss. There is a different way. Let’s work together to heal your relationship with your body and food and start your journey toward radical self-love and acceptance. I practice therapy from a Health at Every Size (HAES), intuitive eating, and anti-diet approach.

We all deserve to feel good about our bodies- but for many of us, that's complicated by years thinking or hearing that there's one right size or shape that we need to attain. I support you in sorting out diet culture programming from what's right for your health and well-being, and developing confidence and healthy habits that do not require a certain size.

Body image issues and eating disorders are sometimes co-occurring for some clients with anxiety disorders. For the past two years I have worked with adolescents and adults who struggle with body image.

I am a Health at Every Size (HAES) practitioner and a fierce advocate for body acceptance and liberation. I believe all bodies are good bodies, regardless of size, shape, or ability.

I believe in health at every size. I am trained in Intuitive Eating and love to help individuals get to a place where they can appreciate and value their bodies, while also increasing health, no matter what the body presents like.

Maybe you feel like you don't have a good idea of how you even appear, your appearance seemingly shifting from one moment to the next, a string that controls how good or bad your day will be. Maybe you feel caught in a cycle of the next diet or next skincare product, just waiting for the thing that will make you feel like you can inhabit your own skin. I'm here to offer a different way, and love helping people find an easier relationship to themselves and their bodies.

I have worked with body image and disordered eating in both private practice and at the Eating Recovery Center. I enjoy helping people find comfort and peace in their body. I am a firm believer in Health at Every Size (HAES). I also love supporting people experiencing gender dysphoria.

I support clients in exploring their relationship to their body and the factors that have impeded this relationship, including gender, diet culture, and dissociation. I do not provide formal eating disorder treatment. I may refer you to an appropriate provider if your current situation requires medical monitoring.

Cis-Hetero-Patriarchy and White Supremacy has filled us all up with harmful, restrictive, and value ridden attitudes towards bodies. No wonder we have complicated relationships with food, eating, and bodies. The dominant systems in place uphold diet culture and anti-fat bias in order to maintain power and control. By recognizing the origins of harmful practices in your life, you may begin the practice of unlearning and replacing these limiting and painful beliefs.
