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 Online-Therapy because I travel often and it is super flexible with my changing schedule. I got matched to a great therapist the first time after using many of the other online. I keep coming back."

"This CBT Course has been very helpful for me. I have done CBT before but this has worked for me.

I think the blend of the worksheets, the videos and the notes are really helpful. I took the on line feedback only from the therapist, I wanted this as I felt this was the best way I would respond (i.e. small feedback notes, rather than weekly sessions).

The challenge for me will be to keep this up, especially when things don't go the well, if this happens I'll re subscribe for a refresher."

"I finally needed to do some Therapy, and wasn't financially able to do so on a conventional way. I then found Online Therapy and gave me so much flexibility and help with the subscription plans. I was paired with Bernadette and she's been amazing, so supportive and helped me get over my issues way faster than I ever expected.
Love the worksheets, helped me realise so many things while reflecting on my issues while writing them, etc."

"I love this therapy platform so much.
It has features many other online therapy services don’t provide, like yoga videos and messaging between appointments. I love being able to see the chat history with my therapist because sometimes they document important realizations. I had an issue where I missed one week of therapy due to holidays and customer service added the missed session to my package for no extra charge. I have already recommended this to so many people. My therapist, Tessa, makes my recovery a priority and I trust she has my best interests in mind. I loved being able to choose a therapist based on my needs. Everything about this platform is so easy and helpful. I love it and it’s helping me so much."

"I’m so grateful to have discovered this website. The flexibility to do therapy on my own schedule, combined with gentle reminders when I need to refocus, has been incredibly helpful. My therapist offers thoughtful feedback and even provides helpful suggestions, making the experience even more valuable."
