Karla Lawrence
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, BC-TMH, CPC
Do you spend a lot of time criticizing or worrying about your body and how you look? Are your thoughts often consumed with finding clothes that hide the parts of your body you feel are somehow "wrong" or "unacceptable?" Do you try to use food and/or exercise to control and change the shape and size of your body? Do you think that once you get down or up to "X" weight you will finally feel like you are enough?
If you are ready to learn how to make peace with your body and food, counseling can help. You want to figure out how to feel good in the body you have, but don't know where to start -- or if it's even possible. We will work together from a Health at Every Size (HAES) framework so you can redefine your relationship with your body. We will unpack the internalized and external messages that have shaped your beliefs about your body. You will learn how to hear and "trust your gut" again. You will learn how to develop a relationship with food and movement that feels like support vs. punishment. Compassion vs. judgement.
If you are ready to finally call a truce with the war on your body, then I would love to help.

Jeannette Craigfeld
Psychologist, Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
I was trained in Feminist Therapy and aim to use a feminist and multicultural lens in all of the work that I do, including in helping clients understand how they have internalized toxic societal messages. I encourage these clients to keep challenging these ideas and seek media and community with more body positive messaging. I also work with these clients to increase their overall sense of self-compassion and self-acceptance.

Brad Croyle
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
I work with clients who struggle with Body Image issues. Commonly, this is the result of some past trauma and a severe reaction to something from the past. This is also spurred from the mainstream media, which we will work to curb and develop more healthier expectations. During our sessions, we will collaborate to create a plan for addressing them that helps you resolve such issues in a meaningful manner to restore functioning enabling and empowering you to move beyond your past. I practice from a Holistic perspective and commonly employ EMDR and other effective modalities with helping clients achieve balance and purpose in their lives and creative solutions to their problems. This includes exploring past issues and trauma that may be a factor. Our goal is to make lasting and desired changes to promote healthy relationships and positive interactions. You can learn to appreciate you for being you, and we will work to redefine who you are and what your true values are as well. This will lead to a more genuine and authentic self and sense of being.
