Shannon Kane
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, and Counsellor RP, C.R.P.O, H.B.A, M.A.C.P
Struggling with body image, emotional eating, or self-esteem related to weight can be an emotional burden. I provide a non-judgmental and compassionate approach to help clients explore the underlying emotional connections to food, self-worth, and body image. Using self-compassion therapy, somatic awareness, and cognitive restructuring, I work with individuals to shift unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and cultivate self-acceptance. My goal is to help clients separate self-worth from appearance, build confidence, and foster a positive relationship with their body and overall well-being.

Struggling with weight or obesity can affect not only physical health but also emotional wellbeing, self-esteem, and daily life. It can be accompanied by feelings of frustration, guilt, or shame, and sometimes it feels like efforts to change aren’t enough.
In therapy, I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with your body, food, and habits. Together, we focus on developing healthier coping strategies, building self-compassion, and creating sustainable approaches that support both your emotional and physical wellbeing.

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Obesity is linked with mental health. People who are affected by obesity may be experiencing depression, anxiety, eating disorder. But it is very hard to find out who came first – obesity or mental health. Psychotherapy help pays a major role in treating obesity.

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 their 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.
