Body Image therapists in Nanaimo, British Columbia BC, Canada CA
Samantha Diminutto
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS-AT
ADHD and self-esteem issues often overlap - including body image and sometimes body dysmorphia. In our work together, we can dismantle some of these negative thought patterns and replace them with a more self-compassionate perspective. Improving our relationship with our bodies makes a huge impact on our quality of life!
With my passion for supporting folx in queer community, I also specialize in helping gender-diverse and trans humans to explore identity and gender dysphoria.

Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Issues around body image are largely linked to harsh self-judgments, which often interfere with the ability to live a rich and fulfilling life. In therapy, I help you gain insight into some of the thoughts and emotions that prevent the establishment of self-worth and self-love. Through various therapeutic approaches, including cognitive restructuring and a focus on values-oriented work, we work collaboratively to help move away from self-defeating thoughts and closer toward experiences that promote healing.

I am passionate about supporting those toward a more accepting approach toward their bodies. Whether you struggle with Body Dysmorphia or your dissatisfaction of your body just takes up more space in your mind than you would like- therapy can be extremely beneficial. I want to support people in getting a place where they can be more accepting of themselves as a whole and be more able to tolerate difficult thoughts and emotions related top their bodies that are causing distress.
