Eating Concerns & Body Image

As the facilitator of our Eating Concerns & Body Image Support Group, I foster an environment of empathy and understanding. I see each member as a whole person, acknowledging the myriad factors that have shaped their lives. Together, we uncover and confront underlying issues, learn to normalize our battles, and practice acceptance of every body. We're building a community where support, interpersonal growth, and self-compassion are at the heart of our journey. For more information, please reach out!
