For most of us, how we feel about our relationship to photos remains unspoken, remains in our head in the tone of our inner critic. Or comes out in moments when we say "I hate getting my photo taken" or when we react to a photo.
For many of us, our relationship to our body through the lens takes up LOTS of brain space. But the powerful thing is that once we release them, once we let them be heard, once we listen to ourselves tell our own body story...we are no longer alone in those thoughts.
As a Body Trust Coach, I'm here to support you in telling your body story, in releasing those thoughts and in shifting those judgements about yourself towards a place of neutrality.
I specialize in our relationship to our body in photos and our reactions we have to them though I'm happy to support you in any aspect of your relationship to your body image. In fact, we always dig into more than just our relationship to photos as it is deeply tied to how we perceive our body image as a whole.
You might find yourself here because you:
Photos are often the 'final frontier' of our body acceptance path. They often hold tight to the old stories about how we have felt about our body in the past. Thankfully, becausethey are often so challenging, they are also a doorway to shedding those old stories.
We will co-create a space where we may explore:
Folks have come to me wanting coaching around stepping more fully into their own lives and letting go of the ways their critical voice has held them back.
Our work might be rooted in our relationship to photos and use the camera as a tool for self-discovery and other times we'll be digging into other tools to support your journey.
My work is rooted in the Health at Every Size (HAES) paradigm, the Body Trust Framework I was trained in, Trauma Informed Coaching and Therapeutic Photography. At the heart of all of these is the believe that you are already worthy, you are already enough and the work is to dismantle the biases and beliefs that get in the way of us truly seeing that.
I see you as whole & worthy and I see you through a lens that has worked hard to dismantle my own biases (and is always learning).
I'd love to work with you in one of the options below to shift your relationship with yourself through the lens and support your body acceptance path as a whole.

PHOTO RESILIENCE SESSIONS
The Photo Resilience Sessions are one off sessions for those folks who have a particular photo or situation that you'd like support around in your relationship to photos but aren't wanting a longer term coaching package.
In these sessions we work together to cultivate more resilience and self-support in your relationship to photos but in reference to a particular situation or photo that you'd like to work with. It works particularly well focusing on one of these types of things:
The cost is $175 CAD for a 1 hour call together.
