Body image struggles can affect confidence, relationships, self-worth, intimacy, eating habits, and the way you move through everyday life. You may find yourself constantly comparing, criticising, hiding, obsessing, or feeling uncomfortable in your own skin. My approach is less about appearance itself and more about understanding your relationship with yourself, your body, and the meanings you have attached to it over time. Together, we can explore the patterns, beliefs, emotions, and experiences underneath these struggles, helping you build greater self-acceptance, confidence, and compassion towards yourself.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
We are all embodied beings. We often separate body and mind as two distinct entities, but the two are intrinsically linked and part of a whole. One aspect of this 'whole' is our subjective sense of who we are - our identity. How we feel about ourselves often, if not always, is manifested in what we do with and what we allow to happen with our bodies - from the food we take in, to the physical (including sexual) relationships we have with others, and the way we modify our appearance (permanently or in more subtle and temporary ways).
In psychotherapy I offer a confidential and judgement-free space where we can think together about the way you relate to your body, what this means to you and how it affects your experiences in life.

Life Coach
When working with body image, I don't focus only on the present struggle. I become curious about where it began.
Body image issues rarely appear out of nowhere. They often have roots in early life experiences, family dynamics, cultural expectations, and the ways we learned to see ourselves through the eyes of others. Together we bring awareness to these patterns and identify the triggers that continue to affect life today.

Jade at We Tackle Trauma
Counsellor/Therapist, MAASW, MSW, QTS, BSc (Hons)
Hi there, I combine lived experience, with trauma-informed practice, and an intersectional lens. Therefore, I have a non-directive approach, that helps me to sensitively work with you to explore your experiences and how these have shaped your body image. I offer a holistic and joy-centred approach; therefore we can work together utilising creative, somatic, and talking therapies to support you in supporting your body image (as you wish) moving forwards.
My knowledge base includes understandings of how trauma may impact body image, and also how embodied trauma may be internalised; and therefore addressed. I work with people of all body types and sizes, including those navigating disability, and those experiencing societal interactions that may seek to shape or limit their body. I also work appropriately with members of marginalised communities, and those seeking support connected to racialized, sexualised, or gendered societal body expectations. This includes those seeking to affirm or change their bodily presentations. Consults are free and instantly bookable on the We Tackle Trauma website, I look forward to meeting you- Jade Evelyn Gayle

Registered Psychotherapist, M Phil - Counselling & Psychotherapy; M A Psychology
Having a body image of oneself is not necessarily a mental health problem by itself. However research demonstrates that an extreme sense of disatisfaction with the body can be caused by psychological distress and lead to further distress by poor eating behaviours and ultimately an eating disorder.
