Body Image therapists in Tysons, Virginia VA
Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Especially in my work with transgender and gender-nonconforming (TGNC) community, body image is often in context to what we are processing. Body image work can look a variety of ways, such as deconstructing and healing internalizations of fat phobia, transphobia, and European body ideals. I like to make it clear - I am a firm believer in the Healthy at Every Size movement and we can utilize this space to find a path towards connecting your mind and your authentic and congruent body.

CBT is a helpful tool that I like to use. We can explore thoughts, feelings and behaviors associated with body image and come up with more manageable ways to approach triggers.

Rachel Ann Dine
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LPC
The relationship we have with our body and self-image can change over time. Comparison, feeling hyper focused on looking a certain way, and even messages you may have received growing up about your body can all go into affecting our view of self. I take a compassionate approach to understanding and helping you feel more confident (and compassionate!) with who you are on both an emotional and physical level.

Sierra Dayton
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC
I work with clients who struggle with body image to reduce the pressure they out on themselves to reach society's standards of "perfect." Together, we will explore how "perfect" is an idea and not a reality and how the media's portrayal of bodies, both women's and men's, are inaccurate and damaging to individuals.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
Navigating the tumultuous landscape of adolescence, many teens grapple with body image concerns that can profoundly impact their self-esteem and overall well-being. Drawing upon my expertise in adolescent psychology, I have dedicated myself to providing compassionate and evidence-based treatment for teens struggling with body image issues. Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral techniques, psychoeducation, and experiential interventions, I work collaboratively with teens to challenge negative beliefs and cultivate a more balanced and compassionate relationship with their bodies.
