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.

Sara Johnson-Cardona
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hi! I am a Certified Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist and am also trained in EMDR and Sensorimotor psychotherapy (L1). My highest value when it comes to providing therapy is you deserve the absolute best quality, and I am dedicated to my own training and consultation in order to provide you with the care you deserve. I would love to work with you so that we could honor the reasons why body image has become such a challenge in your life. I know that there are incredibly good reasons for this, likely both from your individual experiences and potentially from legacies of family and cultural beliefs passed down around bodies. Together we will work to better understand your current relationship with your body, honor the purpose of feeling this way, heal whatever is underneath these ways of being, so that you can be freed up to use your gifts. It would love to support you and help you find the resources that are inside of you. A different way of interacting with yourself and your body is possible.

Are you living out someone else's story of your body?
Is your relationship with your body one of judgement, shame, disconnection or control?
Are you tired of being limited by and unhappy with how you look?
We carry around our families old stories or culture's stories of our bodies so we need learn to rewrite those stories and live out different endings. You deserve a loving strong relationship with your body that allows you for more self-acceptance and peace in your life. Through a variety of tools that may include somatic work, art therapy, yoga or other modalities begin the path of returning to your body.
