What is the goal of counseling for weight loss?

The journey to weight loss can feel like a winding road with a lot of ups and downs. The goal of counseling isn’t just to help you lose weight. It’s to help you find a sense of peace with your body and your relationship with food. We'll work together to help you understand what's driving your behavior, so you can build new habits that support your well-being. You can live a life that is full and rewarding, and we are here to help you get there.

How can a counselor help with emotional eating?

Emotional eating can feel like you're trying to fill a hole with food, but it never seems to work. Counseling helps you find new ways to cope with your emotions without turning to food. We'll help you understand what's really going on inside, and we’ll give you a new playbook for responding to your feelings in a healthy way. You can take control of your emotions and live a life that is not controlled by food.

What are some common challenges with weight loss?

Weight loss is a deeply personal journey, and it's not just about a diet or a workout plan. You may struggle with a lack of motivation, a fear of failure, or a sense of being overwhelmed. We understand these struggles. We'll provide a safe space for you to process your emotions without judgment. We believe in your capacity to live a life that is full and rewarding.

What is the difference between a dietitian and a counselor?

A dietitian is a specialist in nutrition who can help you with a meal plan and healthy eating habits. A counselor is a specialist in mental health who can help you with the emotional and psychological aspects of your weight. Think of it this way: a dietitian is your guide for what you eat, and a counselor is your guide for why you eat. We can work together to help you get the support you need.
