In a world full of toxic body-shaming beliefs, unrealistic expectations, and the ever-present pressure to conform, living comfortably and confidently in your body is no easy thing to do. Add to that confusing and artificial gender roles, sexual fears, and a whole lot of systemic oppression across all aspects of identity, and it’s no wonder so many of us struggle to build a compassionate and affirming relationship with our bodies.
At The Pincus Center, we’re here to rewrite that narrative. We reject diet culture and believe in each individual’s agency over their own body and how they present it to the world. Together with your coach, you’ll establish a safe, sympathetic space for the work YOU want to do. You will get personalized, supportive guidance on your journey of body affirmation.
We work with individuals seeking to:
- Come to a place of body neutrality
- Make peace with their body and its changes
- Reconnect with and fully inhabit their body
- Challenge harmful narratives around weight and size
Your body is your home, the one place you will always inhabit. At The Pincus Center, our mission is to help you create a sense of belonging and comfort within yourself. Together, we’ll work toward a future where your relationship with your body is grounded in love, respect, and empowerment. Schedule a free 20 minute consultation now with our coach Rev. Jenellen Fischer!
Our coaching recognizes that body image challenges often intersect with other parts of your identity and experiences. That’s why we take a holistic approach to help you navigate not only body-related struggles but also the systems and beliefs that have shaped them. When specialized care is needed, your coach can connect you with body-neutral/body-positive professionals, including therapists, nutritionists, medical providers, and movement instructors who prioritize inclusivity and respect. We can also help you find and engage with a community of fat-affirming individuals and allies, both locally and online, so you feel supported, understood, and connected in your daily life.
