This program is for you if…

  • You feel stuck in cycles of dieting, overeating, or food guilt

  • You’re tired of rules, tracking, or “starting over”

  • You want a calmer, more sustainable relationship with food

What I Offer

I offer Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training (MB-EAT), an evidence-based, structured group program designed to help people change their relationship with food, eating, and their bodies.

Rather than relying on rules, tracking, or willpower, MB-EAT focuses on building awareness and reducing reactivity around food, supporting greater choice and self-trust over time.

A guided small-group experience that blends practice, reflection, and applied tools for everyday eating.

  • Small, live online groups

  • Time-limited, structured format

  • Grounded in mindfulness and eating awareness

  • Designed for adults struggling with cycles of dieting, overeating, or food guilt

Who I Am

My name is Melis Karaoglu. I’m a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario, Canada, and a certified MB-EAT Practitioner.

I created MYSA to offer a structured, mindfulness-based approach to eating. The work here is educational and experiential, focused on helping people build awareness, reduce reactivity around food, and relate to eating in a more sustainable way.

MYSA groups are not psychotherapy. They follow a clear evidence-based program structure and are designed to support learning, reflection, and practical application rather than clinical treatment
