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.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you struggle with body image, you may find yourself constantly criticizing your appearance, comparing yourself to others, or feeling that your worth rises and falls with the number on a scale or how you look in the mirror. These thoughts can quietly shape your confidence, your relationships, and even the way you show up in the world.
At Selah Counselling, we approach body image with compassion and depth. We recognize that body dissatisfaction is often rooted in deeper experiences, cultural pressures, attachment wounds, and nervous system stress. Together, we explore the beliefs you have internalized about your body and gently challenge the shame that may have attached to it. Our work focuses on building self-compassion, strengthening identity beyond appearance, and helping you develop a more respectful and regulated relationship with your body. The goal is not perfection. It is freedom, steadiness, and a sense of worth that is not dependent on how you look.

Kimberly Davidson | Katalyst Integrated Trauma Treatment
Counsellor/Therapist, RCS, MTC, RTC, SEP, CCTP, CCISM, CFRC, CATP, NARM
Quite often disordered body image is a result of trauma. Changing our relationship to our bodies and ourselves through understanding, while leaving the protection it offers in place, goes a long way to healing the whole person.
