Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Body image struggles can affect confidence, relationships, self-worth, intimacy, eating habits, and the way you move through everyday life. You may find yourself constantly comparing, criticising, hiding, obsessing, or feeling uncomfortable in your own skin. My approach is less about appearance itself and more about understanding your relationship with yourself, your body, and the meanings you have attached to it over time. Together, we can explore the patterns, beliefs, emotions, and experiences underneath these struggles, helping you build greater self-acceptance, confidence, and compassion towards yourself.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Difficulties with body image can feel completely overwhelming, like there's no way out. As your therapist I am here to be with you, reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore what your body image is like, when it is at its worst, and help you to gain more of a sense of control over this. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

Headline: Healing Your Relationship with Your Body in a Culture That Isn’t on Your Side
The Reality of Living in Diet Culture
We live in a world that makes it feel nearly impossible to exist without a constant, critical inner monologue about your body or your plate. No one comes out of our weight-obsessed culture unscathed, and for many, the "baggage" of these stories becomes a heavy, daily burden. If you feel like you are constantly at war with your reflection or your appetite, you are not alone—and it isn’t your fault.
A Sanctuary of Body Liberation
My practice is rooted in Body Liberation. I believe that every body—including yours—is inherently worthy of acceptance, compassion, and uncompromising care. I specialize in helping individuals who have never felt "safe" accepting themselves in a world that demands they change.
My Specialized Framework
In a private-pay setting, you deserve a therapist who understands the high-stakes complexity of recovery. My approach is defined by:
Health at Every Size (HAES®): I provide weight-neutral care that honors the rich diversity of human shapes and sizes. We focus on health behaviors and psychological well-being, not the number on the scale.
Nuanced Advocacy: We will engage in the sophisticated, often difficult conversations required to navigate a medical system and a culture preoccupied with size.
A Roadmap to Peace: We move beyond "body positivity" toward body neutrality and liberation—helping you reclaim the mental energy currently spent on body-checking and food-tracking so you can reinvest it in your actual life.
Why Choose This Approach?
You are investing in more than just "talk therapy." You are investing in a specialized partnership that challenges the status quo of your suffering. Together, we will untangle your worth from your weight and build a foundation of self-trust that diet culture can no longer shake.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
We are all embodied beings. We often separate body and mind as two distinct entities, but the two are intrinsically linked and part of a whole. One aspect of this 'whole' is our subjective sense of who we are - our identity. How we feel about ourselves often, if not always, is manifested in what we do with and what we allow to happen with our bodies - from the food we take in, to the physical (including sexual) relationships we have with others, and the way we modify our appearance (permanently or in more subtle and temporary ways).
In psychotherapy I offer a confidential and judgement-free space where we can think together about the way you relate to your body, what this means to you and how it affects your experiences in life.
