Online Therapy for Weight Loss

Category: Online Therapy for Weight Problems | Last updated: March 11th, 2026 | Medically reviewed by:

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.

Rather than focusing only on short-term diets, this program combines conventional weight management approaches with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) strategies that address the thoughts and habits connected to eating. Through this process, you can begin to understand why you eat the way you do and what everyday situations may trigger overeating or unhealthy food choices. By developing healthier thinking patterns and behavioral strategies, many people are able to build sustainable habits that support long-term weight management.

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!

"Beth Lakes is an amazing person and therapist. I feel completely comfortable confiding with her due to the warm and grounded energy she brings to every session. I've been seeing her for about a year now and she has made a tangible difference to my mental health. She has helped me grow and navigate through some very tumultuous times. I can't recommend her enough."

"Quick and Easy to get set up with a therapist and good flexibility in appointments. There are online worksheets to help you start off but also I found that talking in sessions helped to discover insights. My therapist has been great in teaching me to understand how my subconscious mind works, how this has been affecting me and helping me move forward from thoughts and behaviours that trouble me."

"I am 50 and have had many many therapists, counsellors, psychologists... throughout my life, and they were never effective or tuned into my specific issues. I have walked out of sessions because the "help" was just so unhelpful. After one month of seeing my therapist here I have learned more and gotten more help than I ever have before. My therapist is the most amazing person who not only makes me feel comfortable and seen, but gives me the most effective advice and homework I have ever had. I have progressed more in this past month with her than I ever have with anyone else. I am just so overjoyed with my decision to try therapy here. I will never go anywhere else for my mental health support."
