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.

Therapy can help you explore the beliefs, experiences, pressures, and emotions that shape how you see yourself.

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.

Ajax is a lakefront Durham Region town east of Toronto, one of the Greater Toronto Area's most diverse communities, with large Black, South Asian, and Filipino populations and many young families commuting west. Mental health needs centre on commuter and financial strain, newcomer settlement, and youth wellbeing in fast-growing schools. Lakeridge Health provides regional services, and the GTA's large therapy market — plus virtual care — extends access.
