Expert Support for Women’s Body Image

My work with body image goes beyond helping you feel better about your appearance.

As a psychologist specializing in women’s body image, I help you explore the deeper experiences that have shaped your relationship with your body, food, self-worth, and identity.

Whether you’re struggling with body dissatisfaction, perfectionism, comparison, or feeling disconnected from your body, therapy can offer a space to understand these patterns with compassion rather than judgment. My approach is relational and depth-oriented, helping you move beyond simply changing how you see your body toward developing a more grounded, compassionate relationship with yourself.


Embodied: A Body Image Program

Embodied is a body image program I created for women who want to develop a more compassionate, connected relationship with their bodies. Drawing from my clinical research and clinical work in women’s body image, the program explores the impact of perfectionism, comparison, cultural expectations, and self-worth on the way we experience our bodies. Rather than focusing on changing your body, Embodied invites you to understand your relationship with your body and cultivate greater self-acceptance, awareness, and freedom.


Body Image Therapy for Women

Individual Therapy

You don’t have to keep fighting with your body or measuring your worth against impossible standards. Individual therapy offers a space to explore the deeper roots of body image concerns, perfectionism, comparison, and self-worth with compassion and honesty. If you’re ready to develop a different relationship with your body and yourself, schedule a consultation call to see if working together feels like the right fit.

Embodied: Group Therapy for Body Image

There can be something powerful about realizing you’re not alone. Embodied brings women together to explore body image, self-worth, comparison, and the cultural messages that shape how we experience our bodies. If you’re interested in participating in an upcoming Embodied group, schedule a consultation call to learn more about the program and whether it’s a good fit for you.
