Christina Arceri (she/her)

For over five years, I've supported clients in enhancing their body image. My approach integrates a Health At Every Size, Feminist, and Anti-Racist perspective, prioritizing weight-neutral care, fostering body acceptance, encouraging joyful movement, and elevating self-worth.

I specialize in treating eating disorders, employing a collaborative approach by closely working with medical doctors and registered dietitians to provide comprehensive care. As a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, I anchor my approach to addressing disordered eating behaviors, helping clients reconnect with their intuitive relationship with food. I am committed to incorporating discussions of privilege, socio-economic class, and trauma to provide a culturally sensitive treatment experience.

I employ a feminist approach to empower clients to explore the profound influence of patriarchy on their lives. Through a collaborative therapeutic process, I assist clients in gaining insights into societal expectations, fostering self-awareness, and building confidence. My goal is to support women in breaking free from oppressive norms and cultivating a sense of agency in their personal and social spheres.

Specializing in psychodynamic theory, I explore the unconscious, revealing its influence on thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By understanding past experiences' impact on present dynamics, clients gain self-awareness, promote growth, heal emotionally, and form more authentic relationships.

I specialize in mindfulness-based therapy, a transformative approach that encourages clients to cultivate present-moment awareness and self-compassion. By integrating mindfulness practices, clients can develop a deeper understanding of their thoughts and emotions, promoting emotional regulation and stress reduction. Through this approach, I help individuals enhance their mental well-being and build resilience in the face of life's challenges.

I specialize in integrating feminist theory into therapy, providing a framework that addresses power imbalances, social inequalities, and the impact of gender roles on mental health. Through a feminist lens, I empower clients to explore and challenge societal norms, fostering self-awareness and personal agency. This approach aims to promote equality, inclusivity, and a deeper understanding of the intersectionality of clients' experiences.
