Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P
Struggling with body image can impact your confidence, self-esteem, and overall well-being. At Pursue You Psychotherapy, we help individuals navigate negative body image, self-criticism, and disordered eating patterns to foster a healthier, more compassionate relationship with themselves.
We provide treatment that targets:
- Body Dissatisfaction – Constant self-criticism, comparison, and feelings of inadequacy about appearance.
-Disordered Eating Patterns – Restrictive eating, emotional eating, binge eating, and unhealthy food rules.
-Perfectionism & Self-Worth Struggles – Believing your value is tied to your appearance, weight, or achievements.
-Social & Media Pressures – Feeling triggered by social media, beauty standards, or societal expectations.
-Avoidance Behaviours – Avoiding mirrors, photos, social events, or certain clothing due to body discomfort.
-Exercise Anxiety – Feeling pressure to exercise excessively or fear of not doing “enough.”
Our approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Self-Compassion Practices, Mindfulness & Body Neutrality, and Somatic Work to challenge unhelpful thoughts, break cycles of self-judgment, and build a healthier self-image. You deserve to feel at peace in your body. Whether you’re struggling with self-acceptance or feel trapped in patterns of comparison and self-criticism, we provide a safe space to help you rewrite your story with kindness and confidence.

Sara Tawadros
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div in Clinical Counselling
Body Image is our feelings and thoughts regarding how we look. A healthy or unhealthy body image is independent of how one actually looks. It’s often affected by media, culture, upbringing and social circles.
I work with my clients on understanding the reasons behind having an unhealthy self-image while gaining awareness on what a healthy body image looks like and working towards acquiring a healthier perspective.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel on edge, overwhelmed, or preoccupied with your body and appearance? Many of us grow up learning to disconnect from our feelings and to judge our bodies harshly—absorbing messages that we should look a certain way, take up less space, or hide discomfort. Anger, sadness, shame, or vulnerability may have felt unacceptable, so the body became a place where those emotions were carried.
These feelings are not flaws. They are natural responses shaped by experience, culture, and self-protection. What matters is how we relate to them when they arise. Together, we can explore your relationship with your body, process the experiences that shaped it, and develop more compassionate and grounded ways of responding—so you can feel more at ease, more present, and lighter in yourself. You feel things deeply for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Burlington is one of the most affluent cities in the Greater Toronto Area — situated between Hamilton and Oakville along the western shore of Lake Ontario — with a largely White, upper-middle-class population and a therapy culture shaped by the stresses of high-income suburban family life, corporate careers, and the pressure to maintain prosperity across generations. Joseph Brant Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving the Alton Village, Tansley, and Millcroft neighborhoods. Burlington's relative homogeneity is changing as immigration diversifies the population, with growing South Asian and East Asian communities beginning to shape a broader range of therapy demand. The city's proximity to Hamilton's therapy ecosystem and the broader GTA network means specialist care is generally accessible for those willing to travel or use telehealth.
