Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I believe that we are all victims of our culture's harmful messages about body size, shape and appearance. Rather than being taught to appreciate all our bodies do for us and trust our bodies' signals, so many of us have been taught to control our bodies and deprive our bodies of nourishment, joy, and rest. I am passionate about supporting people in unlearning these harmful messages and building a healthier, more compassionate relationship with their bodies.

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.

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.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Body image counseling is a specialized form of psychotherapy that focuses on assisting individuals in developing a healthier and more positive relationship with their bodies. Body image is how individuals perceive and feel about their physical appearance, such as size, shape, and overall attractiveness. A negative body image can result in emotional distress, low self-esteem, and the onset of eating disorders or other mental health issues.
Body image therapy aims not to achieve a particular ideal body shape or size but to promote self-acceptance and a positive body image regardless of physical appearance. The therapeutic process is individualized, and the therapist collaborates with the client to address his or her particular requirements and objectives.
If negative body image is significantly affecting your well-being or contributing to mental health issues, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in body image therapy to begin the process of developing a healthier and more positive body image.
