Body image refers to an individual's perception, thoughts, feelings, and attitudes towards their own body. It is influenced by various factors including cultural standards, media messages, and personal experiences. A negative body image can lead to low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression, and can interfere with daily life activities. On the other hand, a positive body image is associated with better mental health and overall well-being. Body image concerns are common and can affect people of all ages and genders. Psychotherapy can help individuals develop a healthier relationship with their body by addressing negative thoughts and beliefs, exploring their personal experiences, and promoting self-acceptance and self-compassion. If you or a loved one is struggling with body image concerns, a licensed mental health professional can provide support and guidance towards a more positive and healthy relationship with your body.

Body image unveils a deeply personal narrative woven with threads of self-perception and past experiences. From the earliest moments of attachment, our sense of worth becomes entwined with the reflections we see in the eyes of caregivers. Trauma, whether subtle or profound, can warp this mirror, distorting our perception and fuelling a cycle of self-doubt and dissatisfaction. Through the lens of attachment theory, body image emerges as a reflection not only of physical appearance but also of our innermost emotions and relational dynamics. Healing begins with recognizing the wounds of the past and nurturing a compassionate connection with oneself. With therapy and supportive relationships, individuals can rewrite the narrative, fostering a sense of acceptance and self-love that transcends the surface, embracing the beauty found within the depths of the soul.

I have borrowed Andrew Seuber's approach to working with a negative body image, that is from the inside out. He suggests that "The negative image is understood as a dissociated and shame-based “part” of the personality in need of understanding and compassion, achieved via mindful awareness, “parts” dialogue and trauma processing. The first step is to create healthy separation between the "observing" or aware Self and the part(s) absorbed in the eating disorder via mindful awareness. Once this separation between the "whole" self and part of self is established, the Gestalt polarity tradition (empty chairs) is utilized to develop understanding of the shame-based part. Understanding leads to compassion for the eating disordered part from a non-enmeshed state of consciousness, aka the aware self, the experiencing self, the observing self. Healing of the eating disordered part occurs when that part no longer feels exiled as a "not-I" and is assisted in processing the traumatic roots of the disorder."
