Body dissatisfaction is a painful self-image preoccupation that profoundly affects self-esteem, self-confidence and social life. It can range from feeling uncomfortable in your body to being unable to attend events because you feel ashamed of your body size and shape. While body image has typically been thought to be a problem that only affected a certain demographic, research shows that it affects people of all ages and genders. If you are self-conscious of your body, continually compare yourself to others, take a long time to find something to wear, frequently weigh or check your body, or isolate, then you understand the torment and anxiety that comes with worrying about your body image.
There are several approaches that work well for reconstructing body image including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Compassion-Focused Therapy. We work from an inclusive, trauma-informed approach to help you understand your relationship with your body. We believe that every body is unique and therefore perfect. We will help you address the negative thinking caused by body dissatisfaction.
If you have been dealing with body image preoccupation for too long, please reach out for a free consultation. We would be happy to talk about how we can help.

Elaine Stirling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
It can be near impossible to keep up with society’s body standards and the ‘shoulds’ of diet culture. Through gentle questions, I aim to help clients explore the narratives around self worth, body image, and their preferred relationship with their bodies. I believe we all have stories about our bodies and image that are no longer serving us and are hard to let go. I hope to help clients discover these narratives and choose the path that allows for a different kind of relationship with themselves. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit.

I am passionate about working with folks experiencing body image concerns. With lived experience coping with body image issues in the fitness industry, as well as additional training in the field of eating disorders, I can help you make peace with your body by approaching it with acceptance and self-compassion instead of criticism and self-punishment.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, MSc, CCTP
It matters how you see yourself. In my experience, clients with body image issues talk about the “ideal bods” our society has reinforced. I get it, it is hard. I can support you if you are going through concerns related to your body image.

Our goal will be to accept ourselves and by "accept" I don't mean "give up", I mean "to accept and set goals" for changes.

I am currently accepting new clients. No waitlist! Evening sessions available for in-person or online sessions.
Having worked as a Registered Social Worker for over 12 years, I have established an approach to working with clients that leaves them feeling heard and supported. Together we create a space where you can safely and effectively work towards your wellness goals and make positive changes in your life. This may involve talking things through, processing and making sense of difficult experiences, addressing unhelpful thought or behaviour patterns, or establishing more effective coping mechanisms. Every client's journey is unique. My role is to support you in this process by being a neutral, non-judgemental resource.
Please feel free to explore my website for more information or to book a free 20 minute consultation.
I would love to hear from you!

Bianca Uguccioni
Registered Psychotherapist, MSc, RP
Body image concerns can have a significant impact on someone’s wellbeing. Addressing body image in therapy will allow you to explore the origins of these concerns, the narratives that uphold these concerns and how these concerns impact you, and how you want to feel about your body moving forward. Therapy, with me, will be a safe space where you can explore the different emotions associated with these concerns and find ways to develop self-compassion and an alternate story that allows you to have the relationship you want with your body. Schedule a free consultation with me to see if we are a good fit.
