Cassandra Sissom
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC
I provide a caring and safe space for people who are concerned about how they see themselves. I use helpful techniques like talking through thoughts, practicing kindness toward oneself, and being present in the moment. This allows clients to work on negative feelings about their bodies, develop a more positive view of themselves, and learn to accept who they are. I want to help clients shift their focus away from looks and build a healthier, more positive self-image, leading to increased confidence and overall happiness.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help high achievers and perfectionists with body image concerns by addressing the unrealistic standards they may impose on their appearance. Together, we explore how perfectionism fuels negative self-perception and dissatisfaction with their body. I teach clients how to challenge distorted thoughts and replace them with more compassionate, realistic views of themselves. By promoting self-acceptance and focusing on overall well-being rather than appearance, I help them develop a healthier relationship with their body. My goal is to support clients in finding balance between their drive for success and cultivating a positive, nurturing self-image.

Melanie Bettes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, Coach
I'm a plus sized woman. I've been there. You eat with friends at a restaurant, and police yourself and what or how much you eat. You walk into a gym (if you make it that far!) to either lose weight or gain mass, but cannot seem to do anything because it feels like there's judgement coming from all sides. You are exasperated that people think it's OK to make remarks about being 'so skinny' or otherwise comment on your body/appearance. You hate shopping for clothes or cosmetics, or participating in activities because of how you feel about your body. Let's talk. It's so difficult to break free from societal expectations without someone on your side.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
Adolescence can be a challenging time, especially when it comes to body image concerns that deeply affect self-esteem and overall well-being. With my expertise in adolescent psychology, I am committed to offering compassionate, evidence-based support to teens facing these struggles. By combining cognitive-behavioral techniques, psychoeducation, and experiential interventions, I collaborate closely with teens to help them challenge negative beliefs and develop a more balanced and compassionate relationship with their bodies. My goal is to empower them to navigate this critical period with greater confidence and self-acceptance.
