Respect Your Body
Body Image Therapy in NYC for Women, Teens, and Adults
You deserve to feel at home in your body.
From a young age, we’re taught that our worth is tied to how we look. Social media, ads, and cultural messages glorify thinness, youth, and perfection, creating impossible standards that can leave you feeling not good enough, no matter how hard you try.
Maybe you feel exhausted by the constant pressure to shrink or change your body. Maybe your inner critic has gotten so loud, it’s hard to see your body with anything but judgment. Maybe food feels like a source of anxiety instead of nourishment. Or maybe you're healing from disordered eating and wondering what a peaceful relationship with your body even looks like.
These struggles are real, and you don’t have to face them alone.
Healing Your Relationship with Your Body
At Thrope Therapy, we specialize in body image therapy for those navigating self-worth, body shame, and recovery from diet culture. Our approach is grounded in compassion, empowerment, and a deep belief that you are more than a body.
We work with clients across all stages of healing, from those beginning to question diet culture to those in recovery from eating disorders or disordered eating patterns.
Our work together focuses on:
Unpacking body image beliefs shaped by family, culture, trauma, and media
Reducing negative self-talk and building a more compassionate inner voice
Reclaiming your definition of health, grounded in your values, not societal pressure
Learning to eat intuitively, without guilt, restriction, or rules
Shifting from body control to body respect, and eventually, body trust
What to Expect in Body Image Therapy
We meet you where you are—whether you’re feeling stuck in shame or seeking more freedom in your relationship with food and your body.
Our care is rooted in the following principles:
✺ Weight-Inclusive, Non-Diet Therapy
We reject the harmful narrative that health equals weight. Instead, we focus on your lived experience and what well-being means for you. You are the expert of your own body.
✺ Intuitive Eating & Food Freedom
Using the principles of Intuitive Eating, we support you in building a more peaceful, flexible relationship with food—free from guilt, rules, or restriction.
✺ Mindfulness & Self-Compassion
Healing is not about perfection—it’s about connection. We guide you toward gentler self-talk, emotional resilience, and living from your values.
You Are More Than a Body
Therapy offers a space to rewrite your story—one where you don’t have to fight your body to feel worthy, where confidence comes from within, and where self-care isn’t tied to how you look.
With the support of compassionate, affirming therapists—including certified Intuitive Eating counselors—we’ll help you reconnect with your body and build a life centered on freedom, joy, and authenticity.
