View profileBody Image Therapy helps people understand and change the way they relate to their body, appearance, weight, shape or perceived flaws. It is not about forcing body positivity or pretending distress is not real. The aim is to reduce shame, avoidance, comparison and self-criticism, while building a more stable and respectful relationship with the body.
This therapy may be useful for people experiencing body image issues, eating disorders, low self-esteem, shame and guilt, emotional eating, body checking, avoidance of mirrors or photos, fear of judgment, or discomfort with intimacy, clothing, movement or social situations.
In sessions, the therapist may explore when the body image difficulty started, what triggers it, how it affects daily life, and what behaviours keep the distress going. Therapy can include psychoeducation, thought tracking, behavioural experiments, exposure to avoided situations, mirror work, self-compassion exercises, body neutrality practices and emotional regulation tools.
Body Image Therapy can be structured or exploratory depending on the person’s needs. Some therapists integrate CBT to work on thoughts and behaviours, ACT to reduce the power of painful thoughts, Compassion-Focused Therapy to address shame and self-criticism, or Somatic Therapy to reconnect with body sensations safely.
When body image concerns are linked to eating disorders, restriction, purging, compulsive exercise or medical risk, therapy may need to be coordinated with a doctor, psychiatrist, dietitian or specialised service. A responsible therapist will adapt the work to the person’s safety, history and goals.
Body Image Therapy may be a good fit when body-related thoughts take too much space, limit choices, affect relationships or make daily life feel smaller. Progress is not about perfect confidence; it is about more freedom, less shame and a healthier relationship with the body.
This information is educational and does not replace professional assessment, medical care or specialised eating-disorder treatment.
In Nice, many people prefer to start body image therapy with a professional who understands international life and can work in their own language. The work looks at thoughts, comparisons and avoidance linked to the body, and at ways of treating it with more respect.
You can choose a therapist who works in English, French or another language; the languages are listed on every profile. Many complementary health insurances (mutuelles) and international expat policies reimburse part of private sessions, so it is worth checking your contract. The first session is a good moment to talk about your expectations and see whether body image therapy suits you.

The therapy page also shows which therapists on MIT currently offer this approach.
A first session usually focuses on understanding what brings you to therapy, what you want to change, and whether the therapist’s style feels like a good fit.
You do not need to prepare anything perfect in advance. It is normal to start with questions, uncertainty, or mixed feelings.
This depends on your goals, the complexity of what you are dealing with, and how structured the approach is. Some people use this therapy for short-term focused work, while others stay longer for deeper change.
Availability depends on the therapist. On MIT, you can check the therapist cards and profile pages to see whether online sessions are offered.
Fees vary by therapist. When no live therapist prices are available yet, the usual range for this therapy is around €80–€140 per session.
Start by reading the therapist’s profile, experience, languages, online/in-person availability, and approach. Then check whether the person works with the kind of issue you want help with.
A good fit is often about both expertise and how safe, understood, and comfortable you feel with the therapist.

Psychiatrists are medical doctors, and their consultations are covered by the Assurance Maladie when you follow the coordinated care pathway. Sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly. Under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed, and many mutuelles or expat insurances refund part of private sessions: check your contract. Therapists give you an invoice you can submit.
Fees are set by each therapist and displayed on their profile. The indicative ranges shown on this site are around €80 to €180 per session for most individual approaches, €120 to €220 for couples or family sessions and €70 to €130 for coaching, career counselling or parenting support. A session usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks.
Therapy cannot respond to emergencies. If you or someone near you is in danger, call 112 (European emergency number) or 15 (SAMU, medical emergencies). For suicidal thoughts, the national prevention line 3114 is free and available 24/7.
Start with what matters most to you: the language, the topic you want to work on, the approach, in-person or online sessions and the fee, all shown on the profiles. If you would like help choosing, tell us what you need and we will suggest therapists. Your impression after the first session counts too.
