Leaine Deschamps - Canadian Certified Counsellor

Another diet that didn’t work the way you had hoped. You did everything right and the "plan" failed. Maybe this has left you feeling defeated, wondering “why isn’t this working for me?”. I hear you, I understand your frustration, and I am so glad you've made it here. Diets are designed to keep you stuck in self-doubt and shame. But maybe there’s another way, one that gently encourages you to put the rules down. You deserve to trust yourself, to feel empowered when choosing how to eat for nourishment and satisfaction, and live in a way that restores your relationship with your body and yourself.

I take a collaborative approach to counselling that trusts your inner wisdom while helping to support the process. Using a Health at Every Size and anti-diet lens to build self-trust through body respect and respond to your critical voice with compassion to foster meaningful change that is aligned with who you want to be.

I work with adults who have felt like their body is a problem to be solved. We can meet virtually, in-person, take your session outside to walk and talk, or observing the horses as we get to the root of what has been keeping you stuck. You don't have to figure this all out alone and starting counselling is a courageous first step.
