Mary Rose Dias
Therapist, MSc, BA, EMCC Senior Practitioner, Certified iRest Meditation Teacher
Our bodies are beautiful gifts; vehicles for us to enjoy and experience and love in our lives. A common (and false!) message received in our society today is that we are defined by our body, that our worth is dependant on our body and that some bodies are more worthy than others. My work with clients is to un-do these false and destructive beliefs and to support clients to love, appreciate and enjoy their beautiful bodies just as they are.

Body image is a combination of the thoughts and feelings that you have about your body. Body image may range between positive and negative experiences, and one person may feel at different times positive or negative or a combination of both. As body image is influenced by internal (e.g. personality) and external (e.g. social environment) factors we work with the client to develop a balanced view of body image and it's impact.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Struggling with body image can quietly shape so much of daily life — what you wear, what you eat, how you show up in the world, how much space you feel allowed to take. If you're tired of being at war with your own reflection, let's work together to help you find a more peaceful relationship with yourself.
The first step in working with body image is understanding that there is nothing wrong with your body — the struggle usually has much deeper roots than appearance alone. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore where these beliefs came from and gently unlearn the patterns keeping you stuck. My approach centers self-compassion, body awareness, and rebuilding trust with yourself.
You don't have to face this alone. Let's take the first step toward a kinder, more grounded relationship with your body.
