Many individuals struggle with poor and/or distorted body image. This is most often associated with disordered eating, but not necessarily.

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.

Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MA, RCC
When working with body image issues, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.

Stacy Kirkbride - Turnpage Counselling & Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist
I believe the path to healing body image issues involves understanding the root of how our current relationship with our bodies developed, as well as setting a new foundation based in a new narrative about our bodies that is firmly planted in acceptance and values-based self-knowledge, self-care, enhanced self-esteem, and loving kindness.
