Break free from a body-focused lifestyle, Embrace you ✨ Body Image Therapist + 10yrs Ex-NHS MH

25/08/2026

I’ve had a few new clients start recently and one of my favourite parts of a first session is actually the psychoeducation, really understanding why the brain has ended up thinking about the body the way it has.

& to be honest, how our mental health “works” in general because we’re just not taught about it at all!!

I’ve seen again with these new clients that when you start to understand where the thoughts, rules, comparisons & behaviours have come from (including what we’ve learnt & seen from the people around us) it suddenly makes a lot more sense.

-It’s easy to see how it’s been passed on through the generations too!

So when my clients understand why their brain is thinking in that way, it helps us work out how we can change it ✨

+ it gives us a lot more compassion for ourselves & the people around us 😌

These clients aren’t usually at breaking point; they’ve just realised it’s causing too much stress & taking up too much space for it to continue for the next 30 years.

Understanding where it came from is part of making sure it doesn’t have to keep going 🤍

You take the women around you as they are; you don’t notice their “imperfections” because they’re not imperfections, they’re just real bodies!!! 😌

If you are like me, you’re way too busy chatting to notice if they’ve gained OR lost a few pounds, you just want them to be happy, feel loved and valued 💕

It’s a fact every single body will change over its lifetime. Don’t give yourself such a hard time about it, truly no one is zooming in on the changes like you are 💫

Letting you know I’m doing a one off evening run this Sunday for the Slow Run Club 🧠🌳🏃‍♀️

My lovely little summer run club is on its 6 week countdown ❤️

We finish on the 27th September, because I’m a fair weather runner!! I’m not here for the cold and dark mornings, our WhatsApp group will continue for those who still want to meet up & I’ll join sporadically 🏃‍♀️

Lots more info on my page if you are joining for the first time 💕💕

I’m trained in CBT, but I don’t get those kind of outcomes from “just CBT”, my whole 15 year (😲!!) career has been working in mental health. & It’s all led me to this very specific corner of therapy, helping women with the complicated overlap between food, body image and how they feel about themselves ❤️‍🩹

Because outside of diagnosed EDs, I just didn’t see this being talked about anywhere else! Despite so many women quietly carrying it around in everyday life. Genuinely, something this consuming shouldn’t have become such a normal part of being a woman 🤍

P.S. I’ve only got space for one, maybe two evening therapy sessions at the minute, but I do have more daytime availability on Mondays and Wednesdays.

Loads more about how it all works on my website, or you’re very welcome to message me on here with any questions (you don’t need to know if you want therapy!) 💌

When you plan on two biscuits anddd somehow you’ve eaten the whole packet. Honestly, it’s not because you don’t have any willpower!

There’s a much bigger internal battle going on 🧠 The food noise, wanting to enjoy the taste, feeling hungry but then feeling “fat”, telling yourself you’ll reset tomorrow, getting frustrated because you always seem to end up back here; all while trying to get on with the rest of your life - it’s exhausting!!

This is exactly why I encourage my therapy clients to put intentional weight loss on the back burner (usually for the first time ever!). Not because weight loss is bad, but because it’s usually the biggest distraction from what’s actually keeping them stuck & often it’s even fuelling the overeating and emotional eating they’re trying so hard to stop.

I’m Alicia, a Body Image Therapist, trained in CBT and this is the work I do every day. We stop fighting the behaviour and instead understand what’s driving it. Because when you change what’s happening underneath, your whole relationship with food and your body changes too 😌

If you’ve found me recently and are interested in the therapy I offer, my website is in my bio & I’ve got space for two new clients at the moment 😃

It is possible to not define yourself by the size of your body 🤍

As a Body Image Therapist I’ve learned over the last 5 years

women don’t need to spend more time loving their bodies

but women do need to spend less time thinking about them

this body image crisis is not talked about enough, please share if you agree 🫶🏼
