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.

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.
