Caitlin Marchand
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
It can be really difficult to have a great relationship with your body when we constantly receive messages from our families, society, and the media about how we are "supposed" to look. Not liking the way you look can negatively impact your daily life as well as your self-esteem. I am curious about the things you like about your body, and work collaboratively with clients to explore and challenge narratives of how bodies "should" look, while highlighting ways to invite more self-love and self-compassion into your life. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Body image work isn't about learning to love what you see in the mirror. It's about understanding the relationship between your body, your history, and the world you've had to navigate. I work with clients untangling shame, disconnection, and the ways they've learned to manage how they take up space. We go slow, and we don't treat your body as a problem to be fixed.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
Everyone's relationship to their body is uniquely complex. As a Relational Therapist, I'll be curious to understand your personal relationship to your body and what it means to you. This is often shaped by how others have related to our bodies—what is accepted, celebrated, and loved versus judged, devalued, or misunderstood. We're shaped by the ways we've been treated in close relationships, in everyday interactions, and in greater society. Our identities and experiences around things like race, gender, dis/ability, size, and sexuality can all be relevant. Your feelings and practices around your body might also be a way to cope with other anxieties and harms experienced. Together we'll try to understand what's happening for you and explore how you'd like to shift the way you see yourself.

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.

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.

This allows my clients to unlearn thoughts and beliefs that are harmful and limiting while learning to genuinely love and appreciate themselves and the value that they bring to the world.

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.

Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
I support clients struggling with body image by exploring the deeper emotional and relational dynamics underlying their relationship with their body. From a psychodynamic perspective, we examine how early experiences, internalized messages, and unconscious conflicts may shape body-related distress. Together, we work toward greater self-understanding, compassion, and a more integrated sense of self.

Samantha Mirarchi | Wild Sage Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Struggling with body image can feel like a constant battle, one that’s often invisible to others, but deeply painful for you. Maybe you’re stuck in a cycle of negative self-talk, comparing yourself to others, or feeling disconnected from your body altogether. You’re tired of letting your self-worth be dictated by how you look, but you don’t know how to feel differently.
In therapy, we create a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore your relationship with your body, unpack where these beliefs came from, and start building a new way of relating to yourself, one rooted in compassion, not criticism. We’re not here to fix your body. We’re here to help you heal how you see and feel about it.
You deserve to feel at home in your body, just as you are.

One of he deepest beliefs which we carry about ourselves is our view of our body and appearance.

Body image is about so much more than appearance, it shapes how we move through the world and relate to ourselves every day.

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.

Beyond Talk Psychotherapy
Licensed Psychoanalyst, RP, CAT, CCC, ATPQ, ACNN
Body image can be characterized by thoughts and feelings that you have about your body. This image can impact how you view your self-worth and the perception about the value you have in the world. It can also cause a mix of emotions, including feelings of shame and anxiety. By exploring your current narrative, we can begin the process of reframing your experience through a combination of CBT and Narrative therapy.

Hamilton is undergoing rapid transformation from a steel city to an emerging arts, tech, and health-sciences hub, and therapists here frequently work with the tension between a proud working-class identity and the changes brought by gentrification and urban renewal. McMaster University and McMaster University Medical Centre — one of Canada's leading health research institutions — provide institutional mental health resources and an active clinical training ecosystem. The city's significant immigrant population from South Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America drives demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists. Hamilton's affordability relative to Toronto has made it a destination for those priced out of the GTA, and therapists regularly address the adjustment challenges of relocation and community rebuilding.
