Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
When you’re caught in a cycle of self-criticism and comparison, it can feel impossible to feel at home in your own skin. Body image struggles are about more than appearance—they touch self-worth, identity, and how you move through the world. In therapy, we’ll work on quieting the inner critic, building self-compassion, and shifting focus from appearance to overall well-being. You deserve to feel confident, at peace, and free to live fully as yourself.

Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
We are all accosted on a daily basis by marketing, media, and social expectations of what our bodies "should" look like and be able to do. I work with clients to assess where there expectations of their bodies are coming from - including factors that are society like I've mentioned above, and factors that are personal such as family, belief systems, and other experiences that have shaped us. This then allows us to work together to shift perspectives and habits that allow us to instead love our bodies and treat them with respect and care.

Michael Sa'd - Toronto Talk Therapy
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, CFST, MBA
Struggles with body image can deeply affect self-esteem, relationships, and overall mental health. My approach to addressing body image concerns focuses on fostering self-compassion and challenging societal and internalized standards of perfection. Through evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-acceptance strategies, I help clients explore the roots of their body image concerns and develop a more positive and empowering relationship with their bodies. Together, we work toward building confidence, promoting self-worth beyond appearance, and cultivating a healthier and more balanced perspective on self-image.

I specialize in helping you cultivate a kinder, more accepting relationship with your body through an integrative, client-centered approach.

Aelea Syed
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
A lot of us are hyper-critical of our bodies and the way we look, this can impact our self-esteem and the way we look at ourselves. The messages we get from society and the pop culture can really make it hard to be self-accepting. I work from a compassion-focused lens to encourage self-acceptance and practice self compassion to establish a better relationship with our bodies. Contact me today to book a free consultation.
