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.

When working with body image issues, I like to start with some mindfulness around the issue to gain a deeper understanding of the experience, from here there are many options, and I rely of the client's wisdom to guide me.

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.

Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Struggles with body image can quietly shape how you move through the world—affecting confidence, relationships, and the way you care for yourself. Whether your concerns stem from past experiences, cultural pressures, or long-standing patterns of self-criticism, therapy offers a space to understand these feelings with compassion rather than judgment. Together, we’ll explore the deeper roots of your relationship with your body, support nervous system regulation, and build a more grounded sense of self-worth that isn’t defined by appearance.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Body image issues may involve a distorted perception of one’s body, which can lead to severe dissatisfaction and maladaptive behaviours. This can manifest in various ways, including obsessive comparisons with others, avoidance of social situations, and extreme measures to change one’s appearance. If you’re yearning to shift your relationship with food and feel more in tune and loving towards your body, I’m here to support you. Having gone through my own healing journey, I know how vulnerable it can feel to reach out. I approach body image from a holistic perspective– combining therapeutic techniques that involve the mind, body and soul. You can expect compassion, gentle curiosity, and understanding from me in our sessions. I'm here to hold space, and solace so that you can return back home to yourself. I would love to hear from you—head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation.

Carol D.B. Whaley Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
So much of our struggles with how we look are rooted in our sense of self-worth. Different from self-esteem, self-worth comes from knowing we are loveable simply because we exist; not by how we look or how well we perform in life. We are loveable and perfect because we breath. Through Somatic Psychotherapy we can begin to feel into the body's inner knowledge of our innate beauty, allowing ourselves to struggle less with a body image that is so externally defined. We begin to cultivate an inner knowing of our true innate beauty unaffected by external sources. A true sense of self-love and acceptance.

Anna MacGillivray
Counsellor/Therapist, MCP, RCC
I believe that embodiment allows for true health. So many of us spend time disconnected from, hating on, and uncomfortable in our bodies. Focusing on healing the wounds that separated you from your body can help build a stronger sense of self esteem and bring back safety to the body.
