Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RCSW EMDRIA Approved Consultant & Credit Provider
Reclaiming your relationship with your body starts with shifting from self-criticism to genuine somatic connection. Society’s relentless pressures and past emotional wounds can make your own skin feel like an unsafe, uncomfortable place to inhabit. Living out our values of tailored care and empathy, we create a non-judgmental environment to explore the underlying distress driving body shame. We help you quiet harsh inner criticism, rebuild internal trust, and cultivate genuine appreciation for your physical self—releasing the constant fixate-and-control cycle so you can reclaim your vitality.

Maribel Ayala
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A. Counselling Psychology, Registered Psychotherapist, CCC, EMDR Certified Therapist, Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapist
Do you struggle with how you see or feel about your body? You may find yourself frequently criticizing your appearance, comparing yourself to others, avoiding mirrors or photos, feeling uncomfortable in certain clothes, or spending a lot of time worrying about how others perceive you. Body image concerns can affect confidence, relationships, intimacy, and how comfortable you feel in everyday life.
I specialize in supporting individuals who are struggling with body image, self-esteem, appearance-related anxiety, and a difficult relationship with their body. Therapy provides a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be shaping how you see yourself.
My approach integrates traditional talk therapy with specialized neuroscience-informed and body-based therapies to support a deeper understanding of the connection between your thoughts, emotions, body, and nervous system. Depending on your needs and goals, therapy may incorporate approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic Experiencing, Ego State Therapy, Clinical Hypnosis, and other evidence-based approaches.
Whether you prefer the comfort of virtual sessions or in-person support, I offer therapy in London and Grand Bend, Ontario, as well as secure online therapy across Ontario. Together, we can work toward developing a more compassionate relationship with your body, strengthening self-confidence, and feeling more comfortable being yourself.
If you’re looking for support with your relationship with your body, I invite you to connect and explore whether therapy may be a good fit for you. Book your initial appointment through our secure online booking portal at https://serenitymindbodypsychotherapy.janeapp.com.
