Do you struggle with how you see or feel about your body? You may find yourself frequently criticizing your appearance, comparing yourself to others, avoiding mirrors or photos, feeling uncomfortable in certain clothes, or spending a lot of time worrying about how others perceive you. Body image concerns can affect confidence, relationships, intimacy, and how comfortable you feel in everyday life.
I specialize in supporting individuals who are struggling with body image, self-esteem, appearance-related anxiety, and a difficult relationship with their body. Therapy provides a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be shaping how you see yourself.
My approach integrates traditional talk therapy with specialized neuroscience-informed and body-based therapies to support a deeper understanding of the connection between your thoughts, emotions, body, and nervous system. Depending on your needs and goals, therapy may incorporate approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic Experiencing, Ego State Therapy, Clinical Hypnosis, and other evidence-based approaches.
Whether you prefer the comfort of virtual sessions or in-person support, I offer therapy in London and Grand Bend, Ontario, as well as secure online therapy across Ontario. Together, we can work toward developing a more compassionate relationship with your body, strengthening self-confidence, and feeling more comfortable being yourself.
If you’re looking for support with your relationship with your body, I invite you to connect and explore whether therapy may be a good fit for you. Book your initial appointment through our secure online booking portal at https://serenitymindbodypsychotherapy.janeapp.com.

My goal is to help you feel more confident, comfortable, and at peace with yourself, regardless of your size or appearance.

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.
