Trauma-informed, multicultural, body image counseling is a therapeutic approach that acknowledges the complex relationship between trauma, cultural identity, and body image. It recognizes that individuals’ experiences of their bodies are shaped by personal history, cultural norms, and societal pressures, which can be impacted by life experience. This type of counseling provides a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their body image concerns while being sensitive to the influence of their cultural background and any trauma they have experienced. By integrating trauma-informed care with a deep understanding of multicultural perspectives, this approach helps individuals foster self-acceptance, heal from past wounds, and develop a more compassionate relationship with their bodies. 

Integrated Counseling and Wellness is not an eating disorder treatment center and our counselors are not trained to treat active eating disorders. While we cannot offer treatment for eating disorders specifically, our clinicians can offer individual counseling for those simultaneously seeking treatment specific for their eating disorder with a different provider. If you have an active eating disorder and would like support finding referrals for this specialized care, please reach out.
