Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
Body image is still a massively understated issue in our society, for both women and men. Our culture privileges certain body types over others everywhere we look, to the point where body shame is ingrained in us from every direction. Hollywood, social media, and Photoshop have created unattainable ideals and told us we are doing something wrong by not attaining them. Our therapy will explore what "ideal" body image means to you, the implicit beliefs about appearance you may hold, as well as your relationship to your own body and health, all in a non-judgmental environment.

Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
I am passionate about supporting those toward a more accepting approach toward their bodies. Whether you struggle with Body Dysmorphia or your dissatisfaction of your body just takes up more space in your mind than you would like- therapy can be extremely beneficial. I want to support people in getting a place where they can be more accepting of themselves as a whole and be more able to tolerate difficult thoughts and emotions related top their bodies that are causing distress.

Vilma Madramootoo
Registered Psychotherapist, Holistic Health Practitioner, Certified Health, Wellness and Life Coach
"Beauty is not a single image, but the active embodiment and celebration of the Self!" Body Image is how we see ourselves and relate to our appearances. The techniques I offer will help you to develop Self-Love, Self-Worth, Self-Care, and uncover your inner and outer strength to identify with your beautiful and unique body image. We rewind to the core issues of when and how it started then explore ways to turn your insecurities and perceptions into feelings of appreciation, celebration, acceptance, and knowing, 'You are beautiful and enough'.

Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
Art therapy offers a powerful way to explore and shift your relationship with your body in a compassionate, nonjudgmental space. Through creative expression, you can externalize internalized beliefs, process emotions, and reconnect with your body from a place of curiosity rather than criticism. Using symbols, movement, and imagery, we can explore the narratives you hold about your body and gently reshape them toward self-acceptance and appreciation. My approach integrates mindfulness and body-based practices, allowing you to cultivate a deeper sense of connection, trust, and respect for yourself.
