Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
Does this sound familiar?
You struggle with negative thoughts about your body, basing your worth on your appearance, obsessing about your weight and shape, and constantly comparing yourself to others. Your self-esteem is tied to the number on your scale. You may even find that your relationships and ability to enjoy life are suffering. You may avoid wearing certain kinds of clothes, being in photos, attending social events, swimming, pursuing hobbies, or trying new things. Deep down, you yearn for a more peaceful, connected and fulfilling life where your time and energy are focused on the things that truly matter to you.
With Health at Every Size (HAES), Intuitive Eating (IE), Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), and other evidence-based approaches, I will help you cultivate self-worth and body respect so you can be kind to yourself and redirect your energy to what fills you with purpose and joy. I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with negative body image and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD).
