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 have participated in several online therapy programs, and I really appreciate the format. Online therapy gives me the time and space to process my thoughts, emotions, and behaviors at my own pace. The focus is entirely on me and my personal growth, which has been incredibly valuable.
If you are like me — working abroad, facing doubts, but always striving to improve — I highly recommend giving online therapy a try."

"I’ve struggled with my mental health my entire life. I recently be struggling with a measurable amount of grief and anxiety, and just overall feeling lonely and isolated. Taking the step to sign up for therapy was easy and thanks to this website I was able to get connected and seen within 24 hours. This has been extremely helpful versus traditional therapy, where often you were waitlisted and can take weeks for you to be seen, is extremely discouraging when you don’t feel like you have weeks to be seen. I’ve never had an online therapy like this but, so far I really have enjoyed the videos and worksheet exercises where I feel that I am being more overall, mindful of my feelings and getting them out instead of feeling like I have to talk quickly to ensure I get everything out and the time allotted."

"I have done a month so far of online therapy, and its really helped me, i really like how you can choose text, phone, or video. and you go your pace with the modules you work together with your therapist with.
The only thing i really didn't like is if something has come up that i couldn't make an appointment on the phone appointment but you can make a text appointment you cant change that yourself.
The reason why i think i have had such a good experience online therapy is because of my therapist Loree Mastel-Marr, she has been so helpful and patient, positive, supportive, and i can joke around with her at the right times in a session when i need, she gets back to me right away when i send messages, i really cant say enough good things about her. She's awesome!"
