We all struggle with body image to a certain degree, this is a fact of life for most of us living in North American culture. When our negative body image becomes all consuming and troublesome, it can impact our daily life and erode our self-esteem. If this is you, I will work with you to understand the origins of your body image issues, what is maintaining it and how we can start to challenge some of those beliefs using a number of strategies.

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.

Body image refers to an individual's perception, thoughts, feelings, and attitudes towards their own body. It is influenced by various factors including cultural standards, media messages, and personal experiences. A negative body image can lead to low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression, and can interfere with daily life activities. On the other hand, a positive body image is associated with better mental health and overall well-being.
Body image concerns are common and can affect people of all ages and genders. Psychotherapy can help individuals develop a healthier relationship with their body by addressing negative thoughts and beliefs, exploring their personal experiences, and promoting self-acceptance and self-compassion. If you or a loved one is struggling with body image concerns, a licensed mental health professional can provide support and guidance towards a more positive and healthy relationship with your body.
