Body Image
Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
We address Body Image by dismantling the colonial and carceral standards that tell us our bodies are "wrong" or "unruly." Using liberation theology and somatic work, we help you reclaim your physical form as a site of sanctuary and power. Our work is to move you from self-surveillance to a state of embodied autonomy.

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.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Difficult relationships with the body rarely start with the body itself, they’re often rooted in early messages about worth, control, or safety. I work with clients to understand where those beliefs originated and to loosen their grip, using Transactional Analysis to explore the underlying script and CBT to shift the day-to-day patterns of thought and behaviour that keep it in place.

Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I work with clients who struggle with body image concerns, self-criticism, and negative self-perception that can impact confidence and daily life. Together, we explore the underlying thoughts and beliefs shaping how you see yourself, while building a more compassionate and balanced relationship with your body. You’ll learn practical ways to challenge harsh self-talk, reduce shame, and develop greater self-acceptance. My approach is supportive, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your experience so you can feel more comfortable in your own skin and move through life with greater confidence. If you’re ready to relate to yourself with more kindness and appreciation , I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.
