”The longest relationship you’ll ever have is with your body.”

— Anna Sweeney

The BodySelf is a groundbreaking approach to working with negative body image; not one created by scientists studying survey results, but by two therapists using their friendship to heal their own body image challenges. Whitney and Deb share these powerful strategies through their popular BodySelf Workshops. The profound impact of The BodySelf approach is the inspiration for their book being published by Sheldon Press in the Fall of 2024.

Deb and Whitney have been delivering workshops together for over 20 years. See what people have to say…

What our clients are saying

  • My favorite exercises were the group shares because so many insights can stem from community and we can be stronger together.

    L.K.

  • I would recommend this workshop to a friend because this beautiful, encouraging, supportive conversation might be the shift you need.

    E.K.

  • We can’t talk about this stuff enough!

    S.S.

  • Deb and Whit's BodySelf Workshops sparked hope that I could not only develop a neutral, but perhaps (one day), positive understanding of my body! They led with care and self-energy, making the group feel like we had known one another for years. I felt seen and heard, but more importantly, I left with a deep desire to explore what makes me feel good.

    K.G.

  • I cried relieved, cathartic tears on my long journey home. I feel I now have freedom to put on a pair of jeans and say, "Nah, not for today," and to know - and believe - that fat is not a feeling.

    K.E.

  • Deb and Whitney bring warmth, connection, and humor to everything they create. Their body image workshops gave me much-needed opportunities to be vulnerable, discover and nurture my own inner wisdom, and feel support from others who "get" the body image journey. There's a magic to their ability to bring people together, tune into our needs, and translate what can feel like such messy, hard concepts. They helped me shift from, "why can't I feel at peace in my body?" into opportunities to be curious and compassionate. I have learned so much, and healed even more, because of them.

    A.S.

  • Because of this workshop, I learned I want to arrive more authentically in my life.

    V.W.

  • Deb and Whitney’s workshops take learning, introspection, and collaboration to an entirely new level. They humanize the experience, putting all participants at ease, and most importantly, are open to what are not easy topics to delve into even more deeply. Their expertise, warmth, humor and kindness are present at every step, making us all feel safe and able to advance our very important and personal journeys to wellness.

    J.G.

  • I learned that my negative body image thoughts are not shameful, they don't’ make me a bad person, and they might be telling me something!

    M.B.
