Body Image and You
monday evenings
6:00-7:00 pm on Zoom
Body Image and You is a process group for women of all ages struggling with body image issues.
Impossible beauty standards have made it difficult for women to feel confident in their bodies and contribute to widespread body image related struggles. Although body image concerns may look different for everyone, many women report preoccupation with body size, weight, and food intake, as well as constant comparison to others perpetuating general dissatisfaction with their own appearance.
Group members will develop key insights into their own struggles with body image, as well as evidence-based coping strategies to assist in progressing toward a more body neutral or body positive perspective. Each week members will connect, empower, and provide support to one another in their related body image issues creating a validating and comforting space to return to each week. Group members will also collaboratively work through a “Self-Love Workbook for Women,” and provide support to one another on this journey.
The group is led by Gabrielle Roy, Psy.D. a Staff Psychologist at Kendall Psychological Associates, who has years of experience treating body image and disordered eating concerns. Dr. Roy strongly believes in the power of group therapy, and has committed herself to continued efforts to be an always-evolving group facilitator. Dr. Roy also strongly aligns with the anti-diet, health at every size perspective, and deeply enjoys assisting others on their journey to this place themselves regardless of where their starting point is.
The group is kept intentionally small (8-10 women) to assist in facilitating greater cohesion and comfort among members. The group will meet weekly on Zoom on Mondays from 6 pm to 7 pm.
Body Image and You is open to new members every ten weeks, so if you are interested in joining please reach out to me directly at dr.roy@kendallpsychassociates.com. Enrollment does require a brief meeting with Dr. Roy to ensure the group is a good fit.
