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.

Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
Art therapy offers a powerful way to explore and shift your relationship with your body in a compassionate, nonjudgmental space. Through creative expression, you can externalize internalized beliefs, process emotions, and reconnect with your body from a place of curiosity rather than criticism. Using symbols, movement, and imagery, we can explore the narratives you hold about your body and gently reshape them toward self-acceptance and appreciation. My approach integrates mindfulness and body-based practices, allowing you to cultivate a deeper sense of connection, trust, and respect for yourself.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Our self-image is shaped by what the world reflected back to us as children. When those early messages were negative, through stress, absence, or abuse, they can create a distorted view of ourselves. I work with clients to explore these patterns and cultivate awareness, self-compassion, and a healthier relationship with their bodies.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you struggle with body image, you may find yourself constantly criticizing your appearance, comparing yourself to others, or feeling that your worth rises and falls with the number on a scale or how you look in the mirror. These thoughts can quietly shape your confidence, your relationships, and even the way you show up in the world.
At Selah Counselling, we approach body image with compassion and depth. We recognize that body dissatisfaction is often rooted in deeper experiences, cultural pressures, attachment wounds, and nervous system stress. Together, we explore the beliefs you have internalized about your body and gently challenge the shame that may have attached to it. Our work focuses on building self-compassion, strengthening identity beyond appearance, and helping you develop a more respectful and regulated relationship with your body. The goal is not perfection. It is freedom, steadiness, and a sense of worth that is not dependent on how you look.

Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Feeling self-conscious (or downright self-loathing) about one's body shape, size, or appearance is a lonely and exhausting experience. We understand that body image challenges are often pervasive and long-standing and are too often encouraged through the messages that individuals of all genders internalize about how they "should" look or show up in the world. Perhaps you can't imagine this ever changing about yourself, or are hoping only to learn how to cope in ways that allow you to feel less alone in the world. At Transforming Emotions, we will help you to tackle the underlying causes that leave you feeling uncomfortable in your own skin. Whether you are seeking to change your body, or to accept it as it is, our therapists will work to assist you in shifting from self-loathing, worry, and loneliness into places of greater self-compassion and self-understanding, learning to live in your body more comfortably with or without modification. Book now for a free consultation to find a therapist who has the skills to help you feel and be your best.
