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.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling, Registered Member MBACP- 408062
Difficulties with body image can affect far more than appearance alone. They can influence confidence, relationships, self-worth, and the way we move through everyday life. Together, we can explore the emotional experiences, beliefs, expectations, and messages that may have shaped your relationship with your body, while developing a more compassionate and sustainable way of relating to yourself beyond appearance.

Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching
Psychologist, MSc, MA, PGCE, GMBPsS
Negative body image usually results from criticism, often by a parent, during childhood. You may know on a rational level that you are perfectly attractive, but do not feel this on an emotional level. If this is the case for you, we will find out where the bad feelings come from in your past, and help you to heal them.

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.

York is one of England's most historically significant cities, with a thriving tourism economy, two universities—the University of York and York St John University—and a housing market that has become increasingly expensive relative to local wages, creating financial stress for many permanent residents behind the city's prosperous surface. NHS mental health services are provided through Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust, and a private therapy sector serves those seeking faster access to care. The city's large student population creates significant demand for young adult mental health services, and the University of York's counselling centre is an important resource for enrolled students. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, relationship difficulties, financial stress, and the particular pressures of living in a highly sought-after city where the cost of staying is increasingly prohibitive for those not working in well-paid sectors.
