What is Relationship to Self Counselling?
When we start to focus excessively on our appearance or personality, it can lead to self-criticism, blame, and shame. If negative self-talk is affecting your self-esteem and relationships, it’s time to prioritize self-acceptance and self-compassion. Consider seeking therapy as a supportive step towards nurturing your relationship with yourself.
Relationship to Self counselling can help with:
- Feelings that you, either as a person or your body, are undeserving of love or care
- A preoccupation with physical appearance or perceived flaws
- Feelings of shame or disgust around who you are as a person or how you look
- Repeatedly measuring, weighing, or comparing your body with others (in media or in person)
- Discomfort and a lack of confidence in yourself
- A focus on food intake, rituals, or restrictions
- Body dysmorphia or inability to see yourself with loving eyes
- Discomfort with or refusal to participate in social events
- Disordered thinking around food and eating – restricting, binging, or purging
- Feelings of disconnection, sadness, or anger towards yourself
- Feelings of inadequacy, self-esteem or expressing yourself authentically
- Challenges with expressing acceptance, compassion or connecting with others
How does Relationship to Self counselling work at Bliss?
No two personal struggles are identical. You and your Bliss therapist will work together to build a unique, individualized plan to rebuild a loving relationship with yourself.
- At Bliss, we believe your counselling should be as unique as you are. We’ll begin by getting you matched with the perfect therapist for your situation.
- Then, you’ll get started with your initial session. During this appointment (virtual or in-person), you’ll share what’s been happening and what you would like to change with your therapist. You’ll leave with a better understanding of yourself and a newfound hope.
- From here, you and your therapist will co-create a custom path to learning how to have a positive relationship with yourself. With a gentle and compassionate expert by your side, you’ll find your way back to feeling at home in your body.
- You and your therapist will work together to determine how many sessions will be supportive to you. Once you’ve established a relationship with your therapist, you’ll be able to reach out for support whenever the need arises.
