Andrea Rowell
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Do you have a part of you that consistently checks if you're acceptable in the eyes of others? Learning what this part of you is trying to do for you can often support this part of you to ease up with it's hold on you. There is often a benefit of the IFS (internal family systems) approach for healing from the profound impact of body image and self-esteem issues.

Brian Baumal
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
Body Image issues often go hand-in-hand with eating disorders and obesity and weight issues. People can judge their body harshly or have a negative relationship with it. Body image issues are often one of the latter topics that get discussed in therapy, because they are often so personal, and in some cases they may even be unknown to the client. There are a significant number of ways to address body image issues, but one that always is effective somewhat is to say to clients "Your body doesn't have a mouth. If it did, what would it say, and how would it say it?" Putting these words to one's body is a great and refreshing start to dealing with these important issues.

Lauren Jin Yong Schneider
Registered Psychotherapist, R.P. (Qualifying)
My goal is to create a warm, welcoming environment where you feel comfortable to share your concerns. Body-image concerns and body-dysmorphia can be quite distressing and you're not alone. Your needs are important to me, and together we can explore those concerns, better understand the influences that have played a role in your experiences, and discover therapeutic goals and strategies that genuinely resonate with you.

Nisrine Maktabi
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Psychology
So many messages tell us how our bodies and faces should look to be accepted, valued, validated, and fit in. In fact our bodies and faces are beautiful and work so hard to help us function and experience the world. Together we will discover the messages received that have lead to feeling disconnected from your true self, and reclaim it and honour it.

Kaleidoscope Counselling Collective
Registered Social Worker, RSW
Often times, our sense of worth can be tied to our body image. This connection is fostered by our society, and often reinforced in the families and communities in which we grow up in. Learning to uncover the messages we have received about our body, noticing the ways in which we perpetuate these negative messaging, and engaging in self-compassion and self-care can help us establish a better relationship with our bodies, and move towards self-acceptance and appreciation of what our bodies can do for us. Our therapists can help you heal the past hurts that have damaged self-esteem, so you can feel better about yourself from the inside out!

Michelle Iacobucci
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
The relationship we hold with our body is deeply personal and can be challenging at times. When working with body image, it may be helpful to explore how external systems and socio-cultural narratives flood our perceptions about ourselves and our bodies. We can work to deconstruct these ideas that are no longer serving you and reach a place of healing where true love and respect for your body becomes a reality. Please contact me for a free consultation to learn more about my approach and to determine if we would be a good fit.
