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!

"Absolutely, the best online-therapy available. Great way to sign up for appts or change within 24 hours. It’s like you have homework in the morning & night. When you get anxious all you need to do is focus on the texts or write a journal entry. My therapist was Angela Miller & I felt she was so up lifting spirit. Thank you. I will recommend. I suggest the more expensive plan to start because it keeps you focused."

"It's great having all the resources in one place for a complete approach to mental wellbeing, from journaling (with a template to guide what you write about, while still leaving you with a space to leave your own thoughts) to yoga. I appreciate the centralization of this approach vs. "here's some links or apps that you need to keep track of separately"."

"Really effective platform. It's not complicated yet it holds all the tools that I've needed so far. Plus, I have met such an incredible therapist on this site who was able to help me issues that I feared no therapist could help with. I would recommend Online-Therapy.com and have found it 5/5 so far (6/5 if I could rate it that!)"

"Belinda Gray was absolutely phenomenal! My wife and I faced the most challenging period in our relationship in November 2024, reaching a point where I was considering moving out and starting a new life. This was unprecedented in our 14.5 years together, making it particularly difficult.

Desperately needing professional help, we discovered online-therapy.com. The website's user-friendly and interactive interface proved invaluable during this time.

Our weekly video sessions with Belinda created a sense of mutual accountability. Her expertise, kindness, and insight were instrumental in helping us strengthen our marriage. She provided us with practical tools and guidance that helped us reconnect and rebuild our relationship. Thanks to her support, we've made significant progress in understanding and communicating with each other.

I highly recommend Belinda to any couples going through difficult times. Her compassionate approach and professional expertise make her an exceptional therapist who can help you navigate even the most challenging relationship issues."
