Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Body image issues can stem from a variety of places - but most commonly from family messages (implicit or explicit), cultural messages (social media, TV, movies, magazines), sexual or relational abuse, bullying, or direct body shaming. Body image issues are extremely common, yet vary in severity from occasional negative self-talk to more severe experiences of eating disorders or depression.
Here at Denver Wellness Counseling, treatment for body image and self-esteem, often includes EMDR on life experiences connected to the negative body image and/or received messages - such as experiences of bullying, critical statements from a family member, witnessing body shaming from media sources, or any direct negative belief system related to body image or a specific body part (ex. I hate my stomach). Therapy for body image issues will also typically include a resourcing component, which involves strengthening or building adaptive neural networks and messages regarding identity and body image, such as "I am valuable," "My body is strong," "My body has created life."

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.

Do you find yourself avoiding mirrors or scales? Or...are you constantly weighing yourself? Inspecting yourself? Dressing in ways to hide your body? Do you have rules about eating or exercise? I want to help you feel better about yourself, to calm those self-critical beliefs and feel secure in your skin. Please feel free to reach out to me to learn more about my approach to treating body image.
