Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I specialize in helping you cultivate a kinder, more accepting relationship with your body through an integrative, client-centered approach. We’ll use mindfulness-based techniques to develop non-judgmental awareness, CBT to challenge unhelpful body-image beliefs, and acceptance and commitment approaches to reconnect with values beyond appearance. Parts work helps soothe critical inner voices, emotion-focused methods allow you to process underlying feelings, and spiritual/existential approaches can foster a deep sense of embodiment and self-compassion. Together, we’ll build practical tools and inner resilience so you can embrace your body with confidence and care.

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.

Anna MacGillivray
Counsellor/Therapist, MCP, RCC
I believe that embodiment allows for true health. So many of us spend time disconnected from, hating on, and uncomfortable in our bodies. Focusing on healing the wounds that separated you from your body can help build a stronger sense of self esteem and bring back safety to the body.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Body image is a deeply personal aspect of our lives, shaping how we perceive and feel about our physical appearance. It involves our beliefs, thoughts, and emotions about our bodies, and it plays a significant role in our self-esteem and mental well-being. When we have a positive body image, we cultivate feelings of confidence and self-acceptance, which are so vital for our happiness. Conversely, struggling with a negative body image can lead to feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and sadness.
It’s important to remember that societal standards of beauty can often distort our perceptions of ourselves. This makes it even more essential to nurture an attitude that celebrates the diversity of body shapes and sizes around us. Practicing self-love, showing gratitude for our bodies, and surrounding ourselves with positive and supportive people can truly help foster a healthier body image. By doing so, we can promote a kinder and more loving relationship with ourselves, reminding us that we are all deserving of compassion and acceptance.

Samuele Bariani
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP
Individuals who struggle with concerns related to Body Image tend to experience significant distress, shame and anxiety over the perceived flaw. Sometimes, people feel trapped in a negative cycle where specific rituals are performed to fix these flaws in their body appearance just to experience a temporary relief. However, the anxiety, the intrusive thoughts, and persistent worries often return, leaving people feeling ashamed and lonely where even little daily activities feel impossible. If this resonates within yourself and your negative view of yourself is bringing you down in a spiral, you may benefit from having a compassionate and non-judgmental therapist to guide you towards having a better relationship with your body. Psychotherapy can help you to identify distorted beliefs about your body and their origins so you can feel empowered to act towards a more authentic and fulfilling life.

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.
