Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Shelley brings a rare combination of expertise as a former registered dietitian turned hypnotherapist. Hypnotherapy can be supportive for many people with past or present disordered eating patterns. My trauma-informed, non-diet approach helps reduce shame, increase safety, and rebuild trust with your body. In some cases, collaboration with other providers may be recommended.

Eating Disorders
Pamela Mekuz
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Q)
Struggling with an eating disorder can be exhausting, affecting not only your relationship with food and your body, but also your emotions, relationships, and overall well-being. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to recovery. Each person's experiences, challenges, and needs are unique, and what helps one person may not be right for another. Drawing on my background in eating disorder recovery coaching, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with food, better understand the thoughts and emotions underlying your struggles, and work toward a healthier, more peaceful relationship with yourself and your body. Recovery is a personal journey, and together we can explore what that might look like for you.

Eating Disorders
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.
