Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults who struggle with body image and the ways it can shape self-worth, relationships, and how people move through the world. Difficulties with body image are often bound up with long-standing beliefs, protective strategies, and patterns of self-criticism that develop over time.
My approach draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how these patterns operate internally and what purpose they may serve. Rather than focusing on appearance or symptom reduction, the work centres on understanding the relationship you have with your body and the meanings attached to it. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I support clients struggling with body image through a trauma-informed, compassionate approach rooted in Compassionate Inquiry®. Body image concerns often reflect deeper emotional and relational experiences, including early conditioning, trauma, or shame. In therapy, we gently explore these patterns while building greater body awareness, self-compassion, and a more respectful, connected relationship with the body.
