Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
My approach to body image work is compassionate, trauma-informed, and grounded in curiosity rather than criticism. I help clients explore how their relationship with their body has been shaped by early experiences, cultural messaging, attachment patterns, and life transitions. Rather than focusing on fixing appearance, we focus on healing the relationship with the body — increasing self-trust, reducing shame, and cultivating respect for the body as it is. I integrate evidence-based practices with nervous system awareness and self-compassion to support clients in moving from self-judgment toward embodiment, resilience, and acceptance.

Claire Benade
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Body image can lead to feelings of self-doubt and other destructive thinking patterns. I will work with you on strategies for coping as well as looking at the larger family dynamics (if relevant) to ensure the best support for everyone. I will help support you as we work through the thoughts and feelings you are having. Focusing on therapeutic relationship and building trust allows me to help support you while using a solution-focused lens.

Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RPq
Struggling with body image can affect self-esteem, relationships, and overall mental health. I specialize in body image therapy, helping individuals challenge negative self-perceptions and develop a healthier, more positive relationship with their bodies. Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I guide clients in identifying the root causes of body image issues, such as societal pressures, past trauma, and negative thought patterns. Together, we’ll work on fostering self-compassion, building body confidence, and creating lasting change to improve your mental and emotional well-being.

Monarch Psychology
Psychologist, R Psych, RSW
Free matching calls available to help match you with the best therapist for your unique needs. Many people struggle with how they see or feel about their bodies. These concerns don’t happen in a vacuum—they’re shaped by culture, past experiences, relationships, and the messages we absorb about appearance and worth. In counselling, body image struggles are approached with curiosity and compassion, not judgment.
Together, we explore the beliefs, pressures, and life experiences that may have shaped your relationship with your body. We also focus on the strengths and values that already exist in your life, helping you build a more flexible and supportive way of relating to yourself.
The goal isn’t to force body positivity or ignore difficult feelings. Instead, counselling can help you reduce the hold that body criticism and comparison have on your life, reconnect with what your body allows you to do, and create more space for self-respect, comfort, and wellbeing.
