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.

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.

Lulu AlRashdi
Life Coach
When working with body image, I don't focus only on the present struggle. I become curious about where it began.
Body image issues rarely appear out of nowhere. They often have roots in early life experiences, family dynamics, cultural expectations, and the ways we learned to see ourselves through the eyes of others. Together we bring awareness to these patterns and identify the triggers that continue to affect life today.

Jade at We Tackle Trauma
Counsellor/Therapist, MAASW, MSW, QTS, BSc (Hons)
I combine lived experience with trauma-informed practice and an intersectional lens, to unpick how trauma may impact body image but also how embodied trauma may be internalised. Work with me if you believe that body image is not just in your head. Consults are free and instantly bookable on the We Tackle Trauma website, I look forward to meeting you- Jade Evelyn Gayle
20 Years Experience
Online in Stoke-on-Trent, ENG England
Stoke-on-Trent — the 'Potteries' — has experienced decades of economic hardship since the collapse of its ceramics and coal industries, and it consistently ranks among the most deprived cities in England, with therapists frequently addressing poverty-related depression, substance use, and the intergenerational effects of long-term community decline. The city has one of the lowest rates of therapy access relative to need of any comparable English city, making the work of community mental health practitioners especially important. Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services alongside a limited private therapy sector. Staffordshire University maintains a counseling psychology program that contributes training to the local community, and telehealth has become an important access route for residents seeking a specialist match not available locally.
