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'm working through some issues. Going at my own pace and when convenient to me is really enabling me to make sense of things. My therapist is supportive and responds in a timely manner, whilst also allowing me to process their advice and the course work at my leisure. Very positive experience so far. Thanks."

"This CBT Course has been very helpful for me. I have done CBT before but this has worked for me.

I think the blend of the worksheets, the videos and the notes are really helpful. I took the on line feedback only from the therapist, I wanted this as I felt this was the best way I would respond (i.e. small feedback notes, rather than weekly sessions).

The challenge for me will be to keep this up, especially when things don't go the well, if this happens I'll re subscribe for a refresher."

"Katalin has been so helpful! She is direct to the point and she asks you questions that make you think deep about your actions in life. She is very understanding and I felt so comforted and seen by her. She gave wise advice. It’s up to me to follow them. I highly recommend her."

"This service is just amazing! My therapist, Bernadette, has been SO helpful getting me back to my more positive, happy self! I love that I can choose when to have my sessions and I can do it from my couch, which is perfect for a super busy schedule like mine. I have recommended this service to several people because I know how helpful this is with all the amenities this site has to offer. If I could give this a rating of 100 stars, I would!"

"Beth Lakes is a wonderful and thoughtful and present therapist! I was a therapist in a previous life and I can tell you she is very good at her calling to do this for others. She is kind and pays attention to what you are saying as much as what you are not saying. Definitely recommend her and Online Therapy. It is very flexible with how and where and when."

"I think this platform is very helpful for people who are afraid of going in person to therapy, it is their first time trying therapy, or it is hard to work with their current schedule."
