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 love the price point and that it allows me to schedule and know I will have 4 appointments in a month. I loved the quick matching with a therapist and the accessibility of changing my therapist easily whenever I feel its needed. The video session interface is easy to use and was clear though at times there was a voice echo (will be doing next session on laptop to compare connections); overall I am enjoying the accessibility of this service as well as the help I receive from my therapist here!"

"My therapist confronted me with objectivity from the first session in a compassionate and honest way. I needed that frankness in my life when I was not holding myself accountable and I am working on carrying that introspection every day now. It is a practice but this website and the professional I was connected with have given me much needed perspective."

"My therapy experience has been overwhelmingly positive and genuinely life‑changing. From the very first session, I felt heard, respected, and supported. The environment has always felt safe and welcoming, making it easy to open up and explore things at my own pace.
What I appreciate most is the balance of compassion and practical guidance. I’ve gained tools that actually work in my day‑to‑day life—strategies that help me communicate more clearly, understand myself better, and navigate challenges with more confidence. I’ve noticed real growth in how I think, respond, and care for myself.
Every session leaves me feeling lighter, more grounded, and more capable. I’m grateful for the progress I’ve made and for the steady, thoughtful support that helped me get here. This has been one of the best investments I’ve made in my well‑being, and I’d wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone looking for meaningful, sustainable change."
