Hypnotherapist, Licensed RTT Practitioner, Clinical Hypnotist, Duke Certified Health Coach, Spiritual Counselor
With body issues I work with the client to navigate get clarity and find the root cause to the body image issues. From there we use methods to help restore a positive body image.
Living in our world and culture, being bombarded by images of the "ideal" body every day, it is no surprise there is a rise in body image insecurities and disordered eating patterns. Finding ease and contentment in your own body can be a painful struggle, but it is possible. Therapy can help you unpack the familial, social and systemic influences contributing to negative body image and self-worth, creating a path towards healing and the freedom to live in harmony with your authentic self.

I understand the complex relationship many individuals have with body image, influenced by cultural standards, societal pressures, and personal experiences. My journey has shaped my commitment to helping others navigate their body image struggles in a supportive and culturally sensitive environment. At Corazon Y Aire, I specialize in addressing body image issues by integrating cultural insights that resonate with the BIPOC community. I recognize the impact of cultural beauty ideals, familial expectations, and media portrayals on how we perceive ourselves. Through compassionate dialogue and empowering therapeutic practices, I work to challenge negative self-perceptions, fostering a healthier relationship with one’s body.
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.
I provide a supportive and non-judgmental space for individuals to explore and enhance their relationship with their bodies. My approach focuses on promoting self-acceptance, fostering body neutrality, and challenging harmful societal norms.
