Sharron Carson
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Perceptions of one’s physical self is a very personal and individual experience. Sometimes we focus so intently on the image we see when we look in the mirror that we can forget all of the positive qualities we possess. We can start to devalue ourselves and place all of our worth on our physical appearance. When working with clients who are struggling with body image, I will ask them to focus on other qualities, abilities and strengths they possess separate from their physical self. Starting to see ourselves in a more balanced way can increase positive self-image. We will also try to determine where the negative thoughts and messages come from and use CBT to reframe those thoughts in a more self-accepting light. Please book a free consultation if this sounds like it may be helpful for you.

Amanda Neves Therapy + Associates
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Struggling with body image can affect confidence, relationships, and overall well-being. We offer a trauma-informed, somatic, and experiential approach that helps you connect with your body in a compassionate, empowering way. Using Attachment-Focused Therapy, AEDP, and IFS, we explore the roots of self-criticism, perfectionism, and internalized messages about your body. Together, we work on developing self-compassion, emotional regulation, and a healthier relationship with yourself, addressing both thoughts and the bodily experience of stress, shame, or discomfort. Our sessions provide a safe, non-judgmental space to heal, cultivate self-acceptance, and move toward a life where your worth isn’t defined by appearance, but by who you are.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
We are constantly exposed to messages about the way our bodies “should” look, which inevitably impacts how we feel and perceive ourselves. Trying to live up to others’ expectations is exhausting as is living in the shadow of shame, fear, and criticism. Within therapy, I will work with you to identify the messages and expectations that do not serve you and I will support you in discovering ways to resist their influence. I will also provide you with a safe space in which we can explore how you can build a relationship with your body that is rooted in authenticity, compassion, and respect toward the uniqueness that you hold. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
I have borrowed Andrew Seuber's approach to working with a negative body image, that is from the inside out.
He suggests that "The negative image is understood as a dissociated and shame-based “part” of the personality in need of understanding and compassion, achieved via mindful awareness, “parts” dialogue and trauma processing.
The first step is to create healthy separation between the "observing" or aware Self and the part(s) absorbed in the eating disorder via mindful awareness.
Once this separation between the "whole" self and part of self is established, the Gestalt polarity tradition (empty chairs) is utilized to develop understanding of the shame-based part.
Understanding leads to compassion for the eating disordered part from a non-enmeshed state of consciousness, aka the aware self, the experiencing self, the observing self.
Healing of the eating disordered part occurs when that part no longer feels exiled as a "not-I" and is assisted in processing the traumatic roots of the disorder."

Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
We are all accosted on a daily basis by marketing, media, and social expectations of what our bodies "should" look like and be able to do. I work with clients to assess where there expectations of their bodies are coming from - including factors that are society like I've mentioned above, and factors that are personal such as family, belief systems, and other experiences that have shaped us. This then allows us to work together to shift perspectives and habits that allow us to instead love our bodies and treat them with respect and care.

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.

Emily Hiram
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I offer a weight-inclusive, Health-at-every-size approach to helping you build a better relationship with food and your body. A big part of my work is helping people understand their relationship with food and their body, rather than trying to control or ‘fix’ eating behaviours. We often look at how early experiences, messages about bodies, and past relationships have shaped the way food and self-criticism show up now.
As your relationship with your body shifts, people often notice changes in day-to-day life — like less food noise, fewer all-or-nothing swings around eating, and more ability to respond to emotions without immediately turning on themselves or their body. The goal isn’t perfection, but a calmer, more compassionate relationship with your body and with yourself

Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
If you find yourself struggling with how you feel about your body, you are not alone. Body dissatisfaction can be incredibly challenging, impacting how you see yourself and how you interact with the world around you. It can affect your self-esteem, self-confidence, and even influence your social life - sometimes leading to avoiding social situations because you are concerned about your appearance. While it was once thought that only certain groups of people experienced these feelings, we now understand that body image concerns can affect individuals of all ages and genders.
You might be experiencing body image preoccupation if you are constantly aware of your body in a negative way, frequently compare your appearance to others, spend a significant amount of time trying to find clothes that you feel comfortable in, often weigh yourself or check your body in the mirror, or find yourself withdrawing from social activities. These are all signs of the distress and worry that can come with negative body image.
Fortunately, there are effective ways to address and improve your relationship with your body. At our practice, we utilize approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Compassion-Focused Therapy, which have been shown to be helpful in reconstructing body image. Our approach is inclusive and trauma-informed, meaning we recognize that everyone's experience is unique and that past experiences can play a significant role in how you feel about your body. We firmly believe that every body is perfect in its own way, and we are here to help you identify and challenge the negative thoughts that contribute to body dissatisfaction.
If body image preoccupation has been a long-standing struggle for you, we encourage you to take the first step towards a more positive relationship with your body. We offer a free consultation where we can discuss your specific concerns and explore how our services can support you. Please reach out to schedule a time to talk; we would be glad to help.

Phyllis Wai Ng
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
Body image is what you think of yourself when you look in the mirror. It involves how you feel about your body weight, height, and shape, how you physically experience your body when you move, and what you believe about your appearance. People with negative body image are most likely to develop eating disorders and suffer from depression, obsessions with weight-loss, and low self-esteem. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy is one of the best way to address body image issues.

Sara Tawadros
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div in Clinical Counselling
Body Image is our feelings and thoughts regarding how we look. A healthy or unhealthy body image is independent of how one actually looks. It’s often affected by media, culture, upbringing and social circles.
I work with my clients on understanding the reasons behind having an unhealthy self-image while gaining awareness on what a healthy body image looks like and working towards acquiring a healthier perspective.

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.

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.
