Weight Loss
Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: CBT, emotion-focused therapy, motivational interviewing-informed and mindfulness-based strategies.
I explore the emotional and behavioural factors that may influence eating, activity, motivation, and weight-related goals. Therapy may address emotional eating, stress, self-esteem, body image, habits, and all-or-nothing thinking while helping clients develop realistic and sustainable behavioural changes. The focus is on overall well-being rather than shame or appearance alone.

Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Weight loss can be emotionally complicated and may involve stress, body image, eating patterns, motivation, shame, health concerns, or self-worth. Therapy can help you explore the emotional and behavioural patterns connected to food, movement, and self-care. The goal is to support sustainable change without judgment, pressure, or shame.

Weight Loss
Nora Taylor, MA, RP
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
Weight gain can affect our sense of self and how we feel about ourselves. It's important to visit your doctor to rule out any medical reason; it also can involve developing a healthy lifestyle that supports your goals; as I am writing I realize it is not always so simple; can involve past losses, trauma, depression.

Weight Loss
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.

Weight Loss
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.

Weight Loss
Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Weight loss is often treated like a simple matter of discipline, motivation, or willpower — but for many people, it is far more complex. Trauma, neurodivergence, chronic pain, hormones, burnout, emotional regulation, sensory needs, shame, self-worth, and past experiences can all deeply impact your relationship with food, movement, and your body.
My approach goes beyond generic advice or shame-based pressure. Together, we explore the deeper patterns that may be affecting motivation, eating habits, self-trust, body image, and sustainable change.
This work is not just about losing weight. It is about better understanding yourself, reconnecting with your needs, reducing shame, and building realistic, supportive strategies that help you move toward greater health and wellbeing in ways that actually work for you.
