Supporting Your Journey Back to Yourself.
Therapy for women struggling with disordered eating, body image, and anxiety in Waukesha and Milwaukee Counties. Available in-person and online.
You're exhausted from never feeling good enough.
Maybe you're tired of stepping on the scale every morning, planning your whole day around what you "should" eat.
Or maybe constantly hustling to fit into a mold that society has set for you has led to burnout.
You may have tried willpower, self-help books, even therapy before - but you find yourself falling back into the same patterns. You're ready for something that actually feels like progress.
You might be here because:
You're constantly thinking about food or your body
Or maybe too much of your mental energy is spent trying to avoid thinking about food or your body.
Your self-worth is connected to how you look or how much you weigh
You feel guilty every time you set a boundary or say no, because pleasing others feels safer
You’ve accomplished so much, yet it still feels hard to believe in yourself
You put on your best mask for other people, but feel anxious and overwhelmed inside
You've been in survival mode so long you forgot how it feels to thrive
Hi there! I’m Melissa Manganello, LCSW.
I help women heal their relationships with food, their bodies, and themselves.
In our work together, we’ll use both talk therapy and mind–body practices to support meaningful change. This approach helps you not only understand your thoughts and emotions, but also tune into the wisdom of your body — creating space for healing, self-compassion, and growth.
