Body dissatisfaction is a painful self-image preoccupation that profoundly affects self-esteem, self-confidence and social life. It can range from feeling uncomfortable in your body to being unable to attend events because you feel ashamed of your body size and shape. While body image has typically been thought to be a problem that only affected a certain demographic, research shows that it affects people of all ages and genders. If you are self-conscious of your body, continually compare yourself to others, take a long time to find something to wear, frequently weigh or check your body, or isolate, then you understand the torment and anxiety that comes with worrying about your body image.
There are several approaches that work well for reconstructing body image including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Compassion-Focused Therapy. We work from an inclusive, trauma-informed approach to help you understand your relationship with your body. We believe that every body is unique and therefore perfect. We will help you address the negative thinking caused by body dissatisfaction.
If you have been dealing with body image preoccupation for too long, please reach out for a free consultation. We would be happy to talk about how we can help.

I have never met anyone who did not like something about themselves. In today's world we are all victims of what we see and what is fed to us in the media. I will teach you to accept yourself and strive for excellence and not perfection.

Brenda Cohen
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying) BA, PsyDipl
Body image, the way we perceive and feel about our physical appearance, can have a significant impact on our mental health and well-being. A negative body image can lead to feelings of shame, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. With a combination of Positive and Strength Psychology, my therapeutic approach to body image includes engaging in meaningful reflection, exploring fulfillment in life beyond appearance, reframing suffering, shifting from external validation, as well as seeking and developing what is meaningful and of value to you.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
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.

EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
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.
