Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Weight isn't just about food—it's about pain, protection, trauma, and survival. Once we've built trust and safety, we'll gently explore what lies beneath: the emotional reasons your body holds onto weight, the ways food became comfort or control, the trauma that taught you to make yourself bigger or smaller. This isn't about dieting or shame. Our focus is your physical health and overall wellbeing, not achieving some ideal number. You'll learn to regulate emotions without using food, understand your body's signals, and address the root causes rather than just symptoms. Healing your relationship with your body means healing what's underneath.

Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting clients managing obesity focuses on creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore the physical, emotional, and behavioral factors that influence weight and health. I help clients identify patterns related to eating, activity, stress, and self-image while supporting them in developing realistic, sustainable strategies for behavior change. Using evidence-informed approaches, including cognitive-behavioural techniques and motivational support, I work with clients to build confidence, enhance self-care, and improve overall well-being. My goal is to empower clients to make lasting lifestyle changes while fostering a positive relationship with their body and health.

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. While we work on the emotional roots of eating problems, it is possible to do hypnotic Gastric Band therapy which works exactly like the real Gastric band but without the painful and expensive surgery. We can set a limit beyond which you feel full and can't eat any more.
