Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
We are born happy in our own skin. As kids, we are curious about our bodies and enjoy exploring them. Then something goes wrong. A well-meaning parent suggests we skip dessert, and the dolls we play with are so anatomically inaccurate they would fall over if they were humans. Then we start to attend school and become more aware of the larger culture. We notice only certain types of bodies are portrayed in the media. Our peers and our social media tell us we should look a particular way. This story may sound familiar, and sadly, it’s a common one. Unfortunately, for so many of us, the dissatisfaction with our bodies starts when we are young and persists for many years, particularly if we don’t start to examine how we think. Together, through radical self-acceptance, fat positivity, and the anti-diet framework we can begin to work toward healing.

Lisa Paer
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, EMDR Certified
I’m a body-positive and HAES-aligned therapist who has recovered from my own disordered eating and body image issues. I’m trained in Intuitive Eating, which is a way of eating that honors your body’s cues and needs. Body image can affect your self-esteem, happiness, health, and well-being. It can cause you to feel dissatisfied, ashamed, or obsessed with your appearance. I can help you improve your body image and feel more comfortable and confident in your own skin.

Jessi Blank
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Having had personal experience with body issues as well as anorexia nervosa when I was a teenager, I have special consideration for those suffering with body distortions. Exploring these issues, I implore psychodynamic principles to help clients better understand the roots of where these issues developed, helping them to further grasp the function these distortions may serve, while also teaching them better ways to relate to their bodies- such as incorporating intuitive eating and observing while also directing clients how to have recorrective experiences with how they can perceive self through healthier lenses.

I assist clients in co-exploring the stories they've been told about their bodies and appearances, identifying the external influences that shape their experiences. Together, we work to minimize the impact of dominant narratives by enriching stories of clients’ beauty and worthiness.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
We are all born into a world where our bodies are constantly under scrutiny. The race to look and feel good in our skin can be an exhausting one, both physically and emotionally. My particular experience is that of a gay man trying to fit into a culture that puts a huge pressure on body image, sexual currency and attractiveness. These issues can be extremely hard to navigate and can lead to anxiety, depression and low self-worth. Together we will work on building a more robust sense of self which will allow you to feel more comfortable in your skin.
