Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Shelley brings a rare combination of expertise as a former registered dietitian turned hypnotherapist. Many people who seek hypnotherapy with her have already been harmed by dieting and restriction. Shelley's approach supports: reducing shame around eating, rebuilding trust in body cues, softening critical self-talk, and improving body image. When the body feels safer, behaviour and thoughts becomes more consistent, creating a sense of peace and healing.

Struggling with negative body image can affect your confidence, self worth, and the way you experience everyday life, leaving you feeling trapped by self criticism and unrealistic expectations. Together, we'll explore the beliefs and experiences that have shaped how you see yourself, develop greater self compassion, and build a healthier, more accepting relationship with your body. My goal is to help you feel more confident, comfortable, and at peace with yourself, regardless of your size or appearance.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Struggles with body image are rarely about how you look; they are about how safe and connected you feel while living inside a body that is constantly subjected to societal scrutiny, ableism, and conditioning. Serving clients online throughout British Columbia, I integrate creative art therapy and somatic exploration to help you transition from critical external self-judgment to a compassionate internal experience. We will work slowly to foster an embodied self-acceptance that feels real, safe, and entirely your own.
