Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
Everyone's relationship to their body is uniquely complex. As a Relational Therapist, I'll be curious to understand your personal relationship to your body and what it means to you. This is often shaped by how others have related to our bodies—what is accepted, celebrated, and loved versus judged, devalued, or misunderstood. We're shaped by the ways we've been treated in close relationships, in everyday interactions, and in greater society. Our identities and experiences around things like race, gender, dis/ability, size, and sexuality can all be relevant. Your feelings and practices around your body might also be a way to cope with other anxieties and harms experienced. Together we'll try to understand what's happening for you and explore how you'd like to shift the way you see yourself.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Has worry about your appearance taken over your thoughts and life? Does it feel hard to have a stable sense of self-worth that does not depend on what you look like? I use evidence-based strategies to help you build awareness of what's keeping you stuck fixating on your appearance, renegotiate your relationship with your body and lead a life that fulfills you in the long-term. I integrate elements from cognitive therapy for eating disorders (CBT-E), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and narrative therapy.

Samuele Bariani
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP
Individuals who struggle with concerns related to Body Image tend to experience significant distress, shame and anxiety over the perceived flaw. Sometimes, people feel trapped in a negative cycle where specific rituals are performed to fix these flaws in their body appearance just to experience a temporary relief. However, the anxiety, the intrusive thoughts, and persistent worries often return, leaving people feeling ashamed and lonely where even little daily activities feel impossible. If this resonates within yourself and your negative view of yourself is bringing you down in a spiral, you may benefit from having a compassionate and non-judgmental therapist to guide you towards having a better relationship with your body. Psychotherapy can help you to identify distorted beliefs about your body and their origins so you can feel empowered to act towards a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Body image struggles are often about far more than appearance. They can be deeply tied to shame, self-worth, trauma, societal pressure, chronic illness, or the exhausting feeling that your body is something to fight, fix, or disconnect from.
My approach goes beyond simply trying to “feel better” about your body. Together, we explore the deeper patterns beneath body image struggles, reconnect with who you are, reduce shame, and work toward rebuilding your relationship with yourself through greater compassion, meaning, creativity, and joy.

Kati Dobrei
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Body image is about so much more than appearance, it shapes how we move through the world and relate to ourselves every day. With a passion for women's health and a weight-inclusive approach, I help clients cultivate greater body neutrality, reduce self-criticism, and build a more compassionate, sustainable relationship with their bodies and self.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Struggles with body image are rarely about how you look; they are about how safe and connected you feel while living inside a body that is constantly subjected to societal scrutiny, ableism, and conditioning. Serving clients online throughout British Columbia, I integrate creative art therapy and somatic exploration to help you transition from critical external self-judgment to a compassionate internal experience. We will work slowly to foster an embodied self-acceptance that feels real, safe, and entirely your own.

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.
