Lots of people don’t like their bodies. Maybe abuse or neglect created dissociation, an eating disorder or depression. Body distortions can happen for a variety of reasons, each needing a somewhat different approach. I’m also an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
We live in a culture that values certain body types more than others. This reality often brings feelings of shame for people of all body types that do not feel they can live up to these impossible beauty standards. Shame surrounding issues of body image lead to depression, anxiety, self harm and relational difficulties. It is my goal to help patients recognize these harmful thought processes and habits that damage self esteem and ones relationship to their own body. I believe that mitigating these beliefs and patters and lead to happier and healthier lives for those who wish to embark on the journey of body positivity.

Ruth Saunders
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.ED, Resident
The therapy couch is a safe space for you to explore how you feel about yourself. We talk about how societal pressures and personal experiences have influenced your self-perception. I encourage you to share your thoughts without judgment, and we'll work together to challenge any negative beliefs you may hold. We'll also find truths about yourself that make you feel positively about yourself. We can use creative exercises or journaling to help you express your feelings in a way that feels comfortable for you. My goal is to support you in fostering a more positive relationship with your body and to help you see and appreciate your unique qualities. This journey is not always easy, but I'm here to support you at your own pace.
