Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you're reading this you're probably wanting to feel better about how you look. You might not like my approach then, because my approach is to help you feel better about how you feel.
Instead of taking a cognitive approach to adjust your thinking about self-image, we can take a somatic approach, working with the charge of discomfort that can come up around body stuff, and finding ways to lower the intensity of that charge.

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.
