Do I need an eating disorder to get help with body image?

No. Many people come to therapy for body dissatisfaction, chronic dieting, comparison or food guilt without having an eating disorder. You don't need a diagnosis to reach out.

Will therapy tell me what to eat or how to change my weight?

No. A psychotherapist won't put you on a diet or give you a meal plan. If you'd benefit from nutrition support, your therapist can talk with you about connecting with a registered dietitian or your doctor.

Is this only for women?

No. Body image struggles affect people of all genders, ages, sizes and backgrounds, including men and LGBTQIA+ folks. Megan sees individuals 16 and older.

Can I do this online?

Yes. We offer virtual sessions across Ontario & select provinces, and many people start that way.

What if I'm in crisis?

If you're in crisis or worried about your safety, call 9-1-1, or call or text 9-8-8 (Suicide Crisis Helpline) any time. Therapy consultations aren't for emergencies.
