Alicia Panchal
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
For many of us, the body image messages we’ve received from our external world have become internalized. We’ve created a dialogue for ourselves convincing us that our bodies are not good enough, not worthy of love, respect, kindness or acceptance and that they need to change. Having issues with our body image can show up in our thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and relationships, and can very easily lead to significant self-esteem issues, anxiety, and disordered eating.
Get in touch to learn more on dismantling the body image narrative we've had for so long, and work towards a place of body acceptance and neutrality.

Erin Ibrahim
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP(Q)
Body image concerns can shape how safe you feel in your own skin, how freely you move through the world, and how harshly you speak to yourself when no one is listening. In Ajax, Pickering, and across Durham Region, I work with teens, young adults, and women unpacking the messages they have absorbed about appearance, worth, and belonging. Using ACT, CBT, compassion focused, and non pathologizing approaches, we quiet the critical voice, make sense of where it came from, and rebuild a kinder, more accepting relationship with your body.

Andrea Town
Occupational Therapist, MScOT, OT Reg. (Ont.), Psychotherapist
Our relationship with our body is shaped by early messages, cultural pressures, and the quiet comparisons we make across a lifetime. In Whitby, Ajax, Pickering, and across Durham Region, I work with adults whose body image concerns show up as preoccupation, shame, avoidance, or an inner voice that is relentlessly critical. Drawing from Gestalt, compassion focused therapy, CBT, and mindfulness, we gently explore where these beliefs took root, soften the harshness, and work toward a relationship with your body that is grounded in respect, kindness, and presence.

Britney Victor
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Negative self-talk, appearance anxiety, and disordered eating often mask deeper hurts. I provide compassionate, HAES-aligned body-image counselling that integrates self-compassion training, parts work, and nervous-system regulation. Clients across Durham Region learn to replace shame with respect for the body they inhabit, cultivating sustainable habits and a healthier relationship with food, movement, and mirrors.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Body image struggles aren’t vanity—they’re often tied to safety, control, worth, and identity. We’ll work on reducing body-checking, comparison, shame, and food-or-body obsession while strengthening self-compassion and realistic, respectful body care. The aim is to feel more at home in your body, not at war with it.
