Embodiment: A Body Image Group
Wednesdays, 5-6pm, Virtual
Join us on Wednesdays for 12 weeks of exploring body image. This group is a closed group that is separated into 3 phases.
During the first 4 weeks (Phase 1), we will explore individual narratives to “body image,” as well as the differences between body positivity, body neutrality, and HAES (Health At Every Size). We will explore barriers to embodiment including socio-economic status, genetics, family/societal myths/beliefs, stigmas, trauma, consistent invalidation, sports, religion, not identifying with your body, body-shame, etc.
In the 2nd Phase, we will spend 4 weeks connecting emotionally with our bodies. We will unpack cognitive distortions, learn skills in emotion regulation, and explore mindfulness & body movement as ways to connect with the body.
In Phase 3, we will revisit our barriers from Phase 1 and utilize ACT (Acceptance Commitment Therapy) to bring individualized values into creating new narratives about body image.
This group accepts Aetna & Cigna insurances as well as private pay. The private pay rate is $65/session.
