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 very happy so far with the experience. Kat is a wonderful therapist, she is a lovely person to talk to and very understanding, kind and helpful. The website is easy to use, the video calls have been fine, no issues technically. The worksheets are also very good and I like that I can message my therapist directly to discuss my answers and for support throughout the week."

"Working with Isabel has been great. I find she listens, cares, shares precious intuitions, thinks about my situation between sessions, and much more.

The platform is easy enough to use and I appreciate having a record of what I wrote. I haven't had a chance to check out all of its features even, so congrats."

"Chelsea’s really great. There’s no rush through the meetings. Things are checked off and we walk through what needs fixing. She has a fantastic grasp of what I’m going through and how to apply her knowledge to each situation and bring out where the key pressure points are. Thanks for the help chels."

"I’ve worked with several therapists in the past, and it’s often been hit or miss in terms of feeling understood. I really want to thank Jennifer for truly getting me. She’s helped me gain clarity around my emotions and other areas, and overall it’s been a really positive experience. I don’t use the online worksheets and messaging system as much as I probably should, but it’s reassuring to know those resources are available when I need them."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’ve had an incredible experience with this online therapy program. The additional prompts, self-care practices, and interactive options built into the platform have been so helpful in keeping me engaged and supported between sessions. Working with Dr. Vicki has been truly transformative as she creates such a safe, encouraging space and I feel supported from all angles. I’m so grateful for the tools and care this program has provided."
