Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S
Body image counseling is a specialized form of psychotherapy that focuses on assisting individuals in developing a healthier and more positive relationship with their bodies. Body image is how individuals perceive and feel about their physical appearance, such as size, shape, and overall attractiveness. A negative body image can result in emotional distress, low self-esteem, and the onset of eating disorders or other mental health issues.
Body image therapy aims not to achieve a particular ideal body shape or size but to promote self-acceptance and a positive body image regardless of physical appearance. The therapeutic process is individualized, and the therapist collaborates with the client to address his or her particular requirements and objectives.
If negative body image is significantly affecting your well-being or contributing to mental health issues, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in body image therapy to begin the process of developing a healthier and more positive body image.

Megan Ramos
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
Bodies are so deeply intelligent, and come in all different expressions. Sadly we live in a culture that teaches us to dishonor this nature, asking us to fit beauty in a box. This can cause so much trauma and distortion in how we learn to relate with our form. I help individuals break through this conditioning and difest what may be held around it, so that a natural appreciation and attunement with self can emerge.

Ruth Weinberg
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Are you struggling with shame, self-esteem, bullying or self-acceptance related to how you look? Cultural pressures around weight, body type and body shape affect clients of all ages and genders. I have training and experience working with clients on a range of issues including restrictive or binge eating, emotional eating, dieting, weight gain, loss, or fluctuation, body dysmorphia and emotional stress related to body image. Together we can eliminate unwanted and unhealthy coping strategies, replacing them with desired, healthy ones. Through the self-discovery process we can help you find understanding and compassion for yourself, including your 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.
