Brian Baumal
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
I lost 100lbs and currently kept it off for eight years (I started August 15, 2012). I remember at my heaviest weight, I wanted to talk to someone who had been there, done that & understood I so badly wanted to change and my frustration at not changing. I wanted someone who could quiet my mind when it worried about my weight and help me gain control of my body and life. I know what it's like to start losing weight, only to abandon the effort shortly thereafter. If you repeat that pattern and put your health and quality of life at risk, then you likely feel that there are issues that need to be addressed psychologically - I can help!
I find people struggling with obesity to keep saying "how will this time be different", or "I am sick and tired of being sick and tired" or "Why am I deliberately ruining my health." Those struggling with obesity have these thoughts going through their head constantly, and even obsessively. My goal in therapy is to use my own experience of successful weight loss, the latest medical theories of obesity and a good solid approach to therapy to address these issues.

Registered Psychotherapist, Bachelor of Arts and Sciences (Psychology: Brain & Cognition; Family and Child Studies), Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
As a certified intuitive eating counselor and psychotherapist, I am dedicated to helping you get to the root of your dysfunctional relationship with food and movement in a compassionate and empathic way. I place precedence on making peace with all foods and helping you to respect your body at any size. I follow the Health at Every Size perspective and help clients advocate for themselves in this way.

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.

Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), MACP, Bsc
I support individuals in exploring the emotional, psychological, and behavioural aspects of their relationship with food, body image, and self-esteem. Obesity is often influenced by complex factors such as trauma, stress, anxiety, and societal pressure, and my approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and rooted in understanding each person's unique story. I help clients identify underlying emotional triggers, develop healthier coping strategies, and build a more positive and sustainable relationship with their bodies and overall well-being. My goal is to empower individuals to make meaningful changes while fostering self-acceptance and resilience.
