Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Shelley brings a rare combination of expertise as a former registered dietitian turned hypnotherapist. Most people who struggle with food and weight already know what foods support health, what habits they “should” be doing and what hasn’t worked before. And yet, emotions trigger overeating, motivation fades, all-or-nothing thinking takes over and shame leads to giving up. This isn’t failure; it’s how the subconscious mind works. Patterns like emotional eating, cravings, and self-sabotage operate below conscious awareness. That’s why insight alone often isn’t enough. Hypnotherapy works by shifting the subconscious patterns that drive behaviour. Rather than forcing change through discipline, Shelley's non-diet approach with hypnotherapy helps your system feel safe enough to respond differently by calming the nervous system, interrupting automatic habit loops, strengthening internal cues of trust and regulation, and reducing the emotional charge around food and weight. So change becomes less effortful, and more sustainable.

Francisca Carrasco - Compassionate Healing
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC. M.Psych
Challenges around weight are often deeply connected to emotions, self-criticism, and stress rather than willpower alone. I support clients in exploring their relationship with food, body, and self-compassion. Therapy focuses on emotional awareness, reducing shame, and developing healthier, more sustainable patterns grounded in care rather than control.

Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I specialize in supporting sustainable weight loss through a holistic, integrative approach: we use acceptance and commitment therapy to align your goals with your core values, mindfulness practices to foster intuitive eating and body awareness, and parts work to address internal barriers to change. Cognitive-behavioral strategies help reshape unhelpful thoughts around food and self-image, while emotion-focused techniques allow you to process emotional eating triggers. When meaningful, I draw on spiritual/existential approaches to connect you with deeper motivation and self-compassion. Together, we’ll create practical tools, healthy habits, and an empowering mindset to guide you toward lasting wellness.

Rose laure Agbazan
Hypnotherapist, Clinical hypnotherapist, Clinical Aromatherapist CAHP
This is not about discipline or willpower. We address emotional eating, self-criticism, and worth tied to body size — creating change rooted in care rather than control.

Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting clients with weight loss focuses on creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where they can explore the physical, emotional, and behavioral factors influencing their health. I work collaboratively to identify patterns related to eating, activity, stress, and self-image, while helping clients develop practical, sustainable strategies to achieve their goals. Using evidence-informed approaches, including cognitive-behavioural techniques and motivational support, I guide clients in building confidence, fostering healthy habits, and improving overall well-being. My goal is to empower clients to make lasting lifestyle changes while cultivating a positive relationship with their body and health.
