Vilma Madramootoo
Registered Psychotherapist, Holistic Health Practitioner, Certified Health, Wellness and Life Coach
"Beauty is not a single image, but the active embodiment and celebration of the Self!" Body Image is how we see ourselves and relate to our appearances. The techniques I offer will help you to develop Self-Love, Self-Worth, Self-Care, and uncover your inner and outer strength to identify with your beautiful and unique body image. We rewind to the core issues of when and how it started then explore ways to turn your insecurities and perceptions into feelings of appreciation, celebration, acceptance, and knowing, 'You are beautiful and enough'.

Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Body image challenges often live not only in our thoughts, but in how we experience our bodies. They can show up as tension, disconnection, self-criticism, or a sense of not feeling at home in one’s body. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, supporting reconnection with physical sensations, cultivating self-compassion, and fostering a more grounded, accepting, and respectful relationship with the body.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Body image concerns can show up in many ways, including difficulty feeling connected to or accurately perceiving your body, frequent comparisons to others, body dissatisfaction, and patterns of disordered eating or appearance-focused distress. These experiences are often shaped over time by personal history, relationships, and broader cultural and societal messages about beauty, worth, and identity.
In our work together, we’ll explore where your beliefs about your body come from and how they continue to impact the way you relate to yourself today. Through this process, we can gently begin to challenge internalized negative beliefs and support the development of a more compassionate and aligned relationship with your body and food.
I take a holistic, trauma-informed approach and draw from ACT, Adlerian Therapy, IFS, DBT, EMDR and somatic therapy to support both emotional and belief reprocessing and nervous system regulation. Together, we’ll work toward greater self-compassion, body acceptance, and a more balanced way of relating to your body.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to learn more about my approach.

Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Struggles with body image can quietly shape how you move through the world—affecting confidence, relationships, and the way you care for yourself. Whether your concerns stem from past experiences, cultural pressures, or long-standing patterns of self-criticism, therapy offers a space to understand these feelings with compassion rather than judgment. Together, we’ll explore the deeper roots of your relationship with your body, support nervous system regulation, and build a more grounded sense of self-worth that isn’t defined by appearance.

Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
Body image is still a massively understated issue in our society, for both women and men. Our culture privileges certain body types over others everywhere we look, to the point where body shame is ingrained in us from every direction. Hollywood, social media, and Photoshop have created unattainable ideals and told us we are doing something wrong by not attaining them. Our therapy will explore what "ideal" body image means to you, the implicit beliefs about appearance you may hold, as well as your relationship to your own body and health, all in a non-judgmental environment.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Whether you struggle with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, or compulsive behaviors like over-exercising, these patterns aren't really about food or your body—they're about control, pain, worth, and survival. In our work together, you'll find acceptance without pressure, safety without judgment. We'll gently explore what lies beneath the behaviors: the fears, the trauma, the relentless comparisons. You'll learn to regulate your emotions without using your body as the battleground, challenge the distorted beliefs that drive the cycles, and rebuild a relationship with yourself based on compassion rather than criticism. Healing your body image means healing what lies beneath.

Quite often disordered body image is a result of trauma. Changing our relationship to our bodies and ourselves through understanding, while leaving the protection it offers in place, goes a long way to healing the whole person.
