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.

Through evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-acceptance strategies, I help clients explore the roots of their body image concerns and develop a more positive and empowering relationship with their bodies.

Alisha Levine
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
It can be exhausting to feel like you’re constantly thinking about your body. Thoughts about how you look, how you’re perceived, or whether you’re “enough” can take up so much space and time. Maybe you find yourself comparing, criticizing, checking, hiding, or feeling disconnected from your body altogether. Therapy can be a space to gently unpack where these thoughts and expectations come from, including the messages you’ve received from family, culture, relationships, and the world around you. Together, we can work toward a more compassionate relationship with your body and yourself, so that your life can feel less focused on appearance and more connected to what truly matters to you.

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.

Pamela Mekuz
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Q)
Struggling with body image can affect so much more than how we feel about our appearance. It can influence our confidence, relationships, and sense of self-worth. You may find yourself caught in cycles of comparison, self-criticism, or feeling uncomfortable in your own body. Drawing on my background in eating disorder recovery coaching, I offer a compassionate space to explore your relationship with your body, understand the beliefs and experiences that shape how you feel about yourself, and work toward greater self-acceptance. My hope is to help you feel more comfortable, confident, and at peace with yourself, wherever you are in your journey.
