Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Body image is not just personal—it’s shaped by powerful cultural messages about which bodies are acceptable, desirable, and worthy of care. From a young age, many people are exposed to narrow, often Eurocentric and ableist standards that are reinforced through media, family systems, healthcare, and broader societal norms. These messages don’t just stay external—they get internalized. Over time, they can shape how you see yourself, how you treat your body, and even what you believe you deserve. For people in marginalized bodies—whether due to race, size, gender identity, disability, or other identities—these pressures are often more intense, more scrutinized, and more harmful.
At Nour Counseling, we take a deeper approach to body image work. We actively help you unpack the cultural conditioning and dominant narratives that have shaped your beliefs about your body, so you can begin to separate your voice from what you’ve been taught to internalize. We look at how these patterns show up in your daily life—whether that’s body checking, restriction, avoidance, comparison, or harsh self-talk—and build practical, realistic ways to shift them. This might include changing how you engage with social media, setting boundaries around conversations that reinforce harm, reconnecting with your body’s needs, and developing a more grounded, respectful relationship with yourself. This isn’t about forcing body positivity—it’s about helping you step out of inherited narratives and move toward something that actually feels like yours.

Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
If a person has a negative view of their body image, it usually stems from negative experiences where a child was made to feel unloved or unsafe around others, if they were the target of some negative judgment, abuse, or trauma. If a belief was formed that they were not good enough/ pretty enough/ perfect enough/ big enough/ safe enough, or felt they had to comply with abuse from a caregiver whom they depended on, or they feel too different compared to others, it affects the way they see themselves and impacts their ability to connect with other people in a healthy way. An example of another such belief can look like "I want to feel/ look attractive, but attractive people get abused/ assaulted". Rapid Transformational Therapy is incredibly effective at helping a person see how those beliefs of poor body/ self-image were trying to help them or protect them. They can then be compassionately released, and new beliefs of empowerment and acceptance created in their place. RTT specializes in transforming people with complete self-acceptance, as that is often the root of so many issues. Ongoing support is given after the session to provide further help.
