The Hunger Within Workshop, previously conducted at the University of Michigan-Michigan Medicine, is designed to unravel the repetitive "life script" which keeps a person stuck in old patterns of relating to food and body weight. The Hunger Within utilizes a unique blend of cognitive behavioral and transactional analysis concepts enveloped in an experientially designed treatment modality. This approach encourages behavioral change by probing and tapping those intellectual and psychological defenses that fuel and drive disordered eating patterns.

Get to the root of emotional eating.

“The Hunger Within Workshop helped me deal with my unhealthy attitude and relationship with food. The lessons in the workshop challenged me to think differently about my relationship with food and why I emotionally overeat. I learned that food is just food; it's my perception of it that gives it power over me.  Shannon is extremely knowledgeable and has a passion for helping others. Because of her warmth, wit and expertise, I was able to finally start addressing my food issues that I've struggled with my whole life!

Truly, this has been the most helpful and beneficial counseling I've ever had. And that's saying something because I've been in/out of therapy since I was a teen! So thank you!”

FAQ’s

  • Do you struggle with emotional, compulsive, or binge eating behaviors?  Have you been on countless diets only to regain the weight plus more?   Would you like to feel more in control and have a better relationship with your food?  If you answered “yes” to one or more of these questions then you would be a great fit for this program!

    Usually by the time someone is referred to me and The Hunger Within Workshop, they usually have been to countless health professionals for help and feel like they have “tried everything” only to feel disappointed, discouraged and even desperate.   The Hunger Within Workshop is different in that we look beyond just the physical approach. We help you to uncover and identify the psychological forces that drive your behaviors and to achieve meaningful progress and lasting success!

  • The Hunger Within Workshop is not covered by insurance, however, it is offered at the price of most insurance copays (approx. $30 per session).  Many clients have submitted their service receipt to their insurance company or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for personal reimbursement where applicable.  The full amount of $249 for all sessions is due at the time of online registration.  A payment plan is also available. 

  • No – The workshop is self-contained and materials are provided each week. With that said, the workshop is based off of the workbook and is an excellent resource to have and go back to. To purchase the workbook, go to www.thehungerwithin.com and they will mail it directly to you.

  • There are a number of ways to keep on pace even if you have to miss a class. One way is to purchase the workbook and read along with the corresponding chapter(s). This will give you a good feel of the week’s content. If you don’t have the workbook, you can read through the weekly handout(s) and homework to begin practicing what you can.

    At the beginning of each new class, I review content from the previous class, the homework, and answer questions. This will give you an overview of the previous week’s content. Finally, the most complete option is for you to schedule a 25 or 50 minute individual appointment with me to get the full content of the week you missed. You can find this option under The Hunger Within Workshop Section, Make-up Session.

  • You do not need to inform me if you have to miss a class. I trust that since you have made this commitment and investment in yourself, you want to be there. I believe that you are doing your best to be present each week and I understand that “life happens” so you might need to miss a class during our 8 weeks together.

  • Don’t worry, I will NOT collect your homework. Homework is for you and is designed to apply, extend and integrate your learning from week to week. The more you “put in” to the workshop, the more you will “get out” of it and this includes doing homework.

  • The workshop operates on the “challenge by choice” principle. Meaning, you decide what you want to share…and what you don’t. While there are opportunities for personal sharing, it is limited and balanced by the content that I will be teaching each week. Overall, I encourage you to challenge yourself to grow in whatever ways work best for you. Growth often involves stepping out of your comfort zone and I’m excited for your decision to take this next step!
