Body Acceptance Therapy
A compassionate, anti-diet approach to healing your relationship with your body and reclaiming embodied living.
You may have arrived here if:
your relationship with your body feels exhausting or painful. Maybe you’re tired of hating the body you live in, navigating body changes related to puberty, pregnancy, perimenopause, or recovery from an eating disorder.
Perhaps you’ve spent years trying to make your body smaller, stronger, or more “acceptable,” only to feel more disconnected, ashamed, or defeated.
How you’ve been coping:
You might cope by constantly striving to be “healthy” — cycling through diets, workout plans, programs, or medications — or by avoiding mirrors, clothes, experiences, or relationships altogether. While these strategies can offer short‑term relief or control, they often deepen body shame, isolation, and disembodiment over time.
In therapy, your body is not a problem to be fixed.
How I can help:
I offer a compassionate, weight‑inclusive, and anti‑diet approach rooted in liberation and social justice frameworks. Together, we’ll explore your body story and how your direct lived experiences and cultural messages shaped by white, patriarchal, and capitalistic systems have influenced your beliefs about health and worth. We’ll gently work toward dropping the struggle with your body, grieving what you’ve been taught to chase, and making room for a more embodied, liberated relationship with yourself — so your energy can return to living a rich, meaningful life.
