"Beauty is not a single image, but the active embodiment and celebration of the Self!" Body Image is how we see ourselves and relate to our appearances. The techniques I offer will help you to develop Self-Love, Self-Worth, Self-Care, and uncover your inner and outer strength to identify with your beautiful and unique body image. We explore ways to turn your insecurities and perception into feelings of appreciation, celebration, acceptance, and knowing, 'You are beautiful and enough'.
It is my belief that in the modern day and age, it is nearly impossible to not feel down about one’s self and one’s body image. We are constantly bombarded with unrealistic images and ideals that can impact our sense of self-worth. My approach to working with clients who may be experiencing decreased self-worth due to body image is to emphasize self-love and self-compassion by bringing awareness to the ways in which our bodies help us every day. I also draw on other aspects of one’s life, outside of physical appearance, where meaning and fulfillment can be derived. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ensure we are a good fit.
We are constantly exposed to messages about the way our bodies “should” look, which inevitably impacts how we feel and perceive ourselves. Trying to live up to others’ expectations is exhausting as is living in the shadow of shame, fear, and criticism. Within therapy, I will work with you to identify the messages and expectations that do not serve you and I will support you in discovering ways to resist their influence. I will also provide you with a safe space in which we can explore how you can build a relationship with your body that is rooted in authenticity, compassion, and respect toward the uniqueness that you hold. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.
By finding root cause of your issue with negative body image, we can change from the deep subconscious roots and clear your habits of thinking and behaviours with hypnotherapy, mediation and energy healing.
Therapy is often an effective way to address body image concerns. In therapy, a person may explore all the factors that have contributed to a current mode of relating to self. We can work together to develop awareness of how much of our self-perception can come from negative comments by others as well as explore the impacts of societal and systemic expectations and pressures. I would like to help you identify the roots of low self-esteem and begin a healing process that focuses on building greater self-compassion and self-acceptance.
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we provide specialized care for individuals navigating body image challenges, particularly in the context of gender dysphoria and the struggle for alignment between one’s internal identity and external appearance. Our therapeutic focus centers on somatic and relational approaches, tailored to address the complexities of body congruency and self-acceptance in the face of gender identity struggles.
Through somatic therapy techniques, we guide clients in exploring the ways in which their body-related distress manifests physically and emotionally. By fostering a deep connection between mind and body, our therapists help individuals process and integrate their experiences, promoting a sense of unity and empowerment within themselves.
Our relational approach emphasizes building a secure and empathetic therapeutic relationship that supports individuals through their journey of self-discovery and body acceptance. We create a safe space for clients to explore their feelings, thoughts, and experiences related to body image, gender identity, and self-expression without fear of judgment.
By integrating somatic and relational modalities, we aim to assist clients in cultivating a more harmonious relationship with their bodies and gender identity. Through this holistic and affirming approach, individuals can work towards embracing their authentic selves, fostering self-compassion, and nurturing a positive body image that aligns with their true identity. Our goal is to provide a supportive environment where clients can embark on a transformative journey towards self-acceptance, authenticity, and inner peace.
With a focus in sports, Reegan has further training and works with individuals that struggle with body image and disordered eating patterns/behaviours.
Often times, our sense of worth can be tied to our body image. This connection is fostered by our society, and often reinforced in the families and communities in which we grow up in. Learning to uncover the messages we have received about our body, noticing the ways in which we perpetuate these negative messaging, and engaging in self-compassion and self-care can help us establish a better relationship with our bodies, and move towards self-acceptance and appreciation of what our bodies can do for us. Our therapists can help you heal the past hurts that have damaged self-esteem, so you can feel better about yourself from the inside out!
