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!

"Working with Dr. Vicki D. Coleman has been an exceptional and truly life-changing experience. She is a highly professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate therapist who listens carefully, understands deeply, and explains everything with clarity and patience.

Throughout the Anger Management Program, Dr. Vicki helped me recognize important patterns in my thinking and behavior, guided me through practical tools, and supported me in developing new skills that I can apply in my personal, family, and professional life. I always felt respected, understood, and motivated during every session.

Her approach is warm, encouraging, and very effective. I am sincerely grateful for the time, effort, and guidance she provided. Thanks to her, I have made real progress and feel more confident moving forward.

I highly recommend Dr. Vicki to anyone who is looking for a skilled, dedicated, and caring therapist. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients."

"Dr. Lucy has been incredible so far: patient, responsive, and supportive. Online therapy has been affordable and accessible, and I’m so glad I chose this path. I came here to work through some serious trauma, and I don’t think I realized how much I needed therapy until I finally started. It feels like I’m finally unburdening some of the weight I’ve been carrying on my own for so long."

"I like the program and the options for therapists, but I've had some technical difficulties before, as I accidentally booked a text session instead of video and it wasn't possible to change it on short-notice, even though my therapist would have been able to switch to video as well."
