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.

Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Body image challenges often live not only in our thoughts, but in how we experience our bodies. They can show up as tension, disconnection, self-criticism, or a sense of not feeling at home in one’s body. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, supporting reconnection with physical sensations, cultivating self-compassion, and fostering a more grounded, accepting, and respectful relationship with the body.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Body image concerns can show up in many ways, including difficulty feeling connected to or accurately perceiving your body, frequent comparisons to others, body dissatisfaction, and patterns of disordered eating or appearance-focused distress. These experiences are often shaped over time by personal history, relationships, and broader cultural and societal messages about beauty, worth, and identity.
In our work together, we’ll explore where your beliefs about your body come from and how they continue to impact the way you relate to yourself today. Through this process, we can gently begin to challenge internalized negative beliefs and support the development of a more compassionate and aligned relationship with your body and food.
I take a holistic, trauma-informed approach and draw from ACT, Adlerian Therapy, IFS, DBT, EMDR and somatic therapy to support both emotional and belief reprocessing and nervous system regulation. Together, we’ll work toward greater self-compassion, body acceptance, and a more balanced way of relating to your body.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to learn more about my approach.

I support individuals in developing a more compassionate, grounded relationship with their bodies. Our work focuses on understanding body-based patterns, reducing shame, and cultivating embodiment rather than control.
