Do you ever get frustrated with yourself for knowing what is healthy to eat, but then consuming the exact opposite?

Are you able to start a diet, but have trouble sticking with it?

Have you lost some weight in the past, only to have it come right back (and maybe even more)?

If so, the reason is not that you are weak or destined to be this weight forever. It has to do with how you lose weight.

You see, the first step to effective and long-term weight loss is not to address your eating, but rather to address your mind and why you eat the way you do. Factors that play a role include your self-image, everyday stress and negative emotions and behaviors.

Forget ineffective diets that last a few months. Get into a program where you will engage in using conventional weight loss methods combined with cognitive behavior therapy strategies to guide you out of those negative thinking habits and behavioral patterns that cause your weight problems. This program helps you become aware of why you eat the way you do and what everyday situations trigger you to over-eat or eat the wrong types of food. This will allow you to lose weight, and to keep it off over the long term.

Specifically, our therapy for weight problems is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the help of CBT, you will learn to identify and challenge the automatic negative thoughts that cause your weight problems. Learning how to make permanent changes in your thinking will create permanent changes in your eating. You will be able to identify what situations trigger your unhealthy eating and learn new ways to deal with your emotions – instead of numbing them with food. With the help of your therapist, you will be able to incorporate healthy eating habits into your lifestyle. This will help you to reach your weight loss goal and to maintain your desired weight. You can do this, and we are here to assist you along the way!

"I’ve always said that I wanted to go to therapy but never did because it was too expensive. However, after some research I found online-therapy.com! Progress is slow when you’re working through hard things, but starting therapy at such an affordable price has significantly improved my mental health. I used to be so incredibly depressed, but my therapist has talked me through my challenges and I view some things entirely differently. If you’re thinking about starting - just do it. Take the chance on yourself."

"I have been using the service for a couple week. I was able to be matched up with a therapist that seems to understand my self in a much deeper level.
I'm starting the journey to learn more about my self and why I am who I am. I'm excited for this journey and the impact it will have on my life!"

"I love this platform! There are so many ways to write and express yourself and have your therapist respond. The worksheets help identify the areas where you need the most clarification. Daily written contact helps greatly as you progress and having a therapist respond sooner than just a once a week live session makes a big difference."

"I am finding the journaling most effective for my therapy journey so far. Many of the worksheets feel somewhat repetitive, but I may have done too many all in the first day so it felt like that. I feel like I should have paced myself better, some guidance in that would have been helpful. I also would love to see an app that could send me reminder notifications for journals, etc."
