Learning to Live in Your Body with Compassion

Body image struggles can impact self-esteem, intimacy, and daily life. You may feel at war with your reflection, stuck in cycles of criticism, or disconnected from your body altogether.

Therapy can help you gently shift toward acceptance and connection — not by forcing positivity, but by honoring your body’s wisdom and worth.

Common Struggles with Body Image

  • Harsh self-criticism or shame about appearance

  • Restrictive or disordered eating patterns

  • Avoidance of mirrors, photos, or intimacy

  • Comparing yourself to others

  • Feeling disconnected or numb to your body

Our approach integrates somatic therapy, self-compassion practices, and trauma-informed care to help you:

  • Reconnect with your body in safe ways

  • Understand the roots of body shame

  • Build practices of acceptance and gentleness

  • Explore identity, embodiment, and belonging
