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.

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.

Struggles with body image can deeply affect self-esteem, relationships, and overall mental health. My approach to addressing body image concerns focuses on fostering self-compassion and challenging societal and internalized standards of perfection.

Sunlight Counselling, Melody Mann
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Struggling with body image can affect how you move through the world — how you eat, dress, connect, and even how you speak to yourself. You may feel caught between wanting to accept your body and the pressure to change it. In therapy, we’ll explore your relationship with your body with gentleness and curiosity, uncovering the beliefs and experiences that have shaped how you see yourself. Grounded in a body-positive and self-compassionate approach, our work focuses on helping you build respect, trust, and appreciation for your body — not as something to fix, but as something to come home to.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Struggles with body image are rarely about how you look; they are about how safe and connected you feel while living inside a body that is constantly subjected to societal scrutiny, ableism, and conditioning. Serving clients online throughout British Columbia, I integrate creative art therapy and somatic exploration to help you transition from critical external self-judgment to a compassionate internal experience. We will work slowly to foster an embodied self-acceptance that feels real, safe, and entirely your own.

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.

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.

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.

Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
Therapy is often an effective way to address body image concerns. In therapy, a person may explore all the factors that have contributed to a current mode of relating to self. We can work together to develop awareness of how much of our self-perception can come from negative comments by others as well as explore the impacts of societal and systemic expectations and pressures. I would like to help you identify the roots of low self-esteem and begin a healing process that focuses on building greater self-compassion and self-acceptance.

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.

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.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Has worry about your appearance taken over your thoughts and life? Does it feel hard to have a stable sense of self-worth that does not depend on what you look like? I use evidence-based strategies to help you build awareness of what's keeping you stuck fixating on your appearance, renegotiate your relationship with your body and lead a life that fulfills you in the long-term. I integrate elements from cognitive therapy for eating disorders (CBT-E), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and narrative therapy.
