Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
You're not just one self—you're made up of different parts, each carrying its own pain, protection strategies, and wisdom. Through Internal Family Systems therapy, my primary therapeutic approach, you'll learn to understand the inner voices that criticize, the parts that freeze or flee, the protectors that push people away. With extensive training and years of experience in IFS, I'll guide you to befriend rather than fight these parts, understand what each is trying to protect you from, and help them heal. When your inner system finds harmony, external life transforms. You'll move from inner conflict to inner collaboration, from fragmentation to wholeness. You will be accepted and not judged.

Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
Art therapy offers a compassionate and nonjudgmental space to explore the complex emotions and underlying patterns connected to eating disorders. Through creative expression, you can externalize inner conflicts, process feelings around body image, and develop a deeper connection to yourself. Art-making provides a way to express what words cannot, fostering self-awareness, emotional regulation, and self-compassion. My approach integrates mindfulness, body-based practices, and trauma-informed care to support you in reclaiming a sense of balance, agency, and a more nourishing relationship with yourself.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Eating disorders are often more than struggles with food—they can be expressions of deeper emotional and developmental experiences. I approach these patterns as adaptive responses, where behaviors such as restriction, bingeing, or control serve a purpose in regulating distress or unmet needs. Together, we explore the underlying emotional roots, often shaped by early experiences and environments where feelings were difficult to express. Through building awareness, emotional safety, and self-compassion, the work moves beyond symptom management toward a more integrated and lasting healing.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are struggling with an eating disorder, food and your body may feel like a constant battle. You might find yourself restricting, bingeing, purging, or obsessing over weight, shape, or control. What may appear to others as discipline or preference can feel internally like anxiety, shame, or a loss of control. Eating disorders are not about vanity. They are often rooted in deeper pain, trauma, perfectionism, or a need for safety and stability.
At Selah Counselling, we approach eating disorders with compassion, structure, and clinical care. We understand the complexity of these patterns and the courage it takes to seek help. Our work focuses on restoring a regulated relationship with food and your body, addressing underlying emotional triggers, and strengthening identity beyond appearance or performance. When appropriate, we collaborate with medical professionals and dietitians to support your overall health. The goal is not simply behaviour change, but healing that allows you to experience nourishment, steadiness, and freedom in a sustainable way.

Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
Eating disorders can develop when a child lacks validation, nurture and support and when they've experienced bullying, neglect or abuse. Counselling will look to validate and build self-worth, to encourage clients to find an accountability partner, to get medical care, and possibly a treatment program specializing in eating disorders.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
It is widely accepted that weight loss, eating disorders, and anxiety are all issues that hypnosis is successful at dealing with. All have their root in emotional issues and the habitual way people see themselves and their lives. Research shows that most people who are grossly overweight have suffered some trauma in their lives leading them to holding on to excess weight and no amount of dieting will permanently change that without resolving those past traumas and changing habits and relationship with food. I see many such clients in my practice and we are able to find them healing and moving on to healthier lifestyle.
