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!

"Phil has been incredible. I'd always had fears that I might not connect with a therapist but he has been fantastic. I find his advice and insights both hopeful and genuine. He has a great mix of knowledge while also knowing how to frame his insights in a manner that a young man like me needs. It feels like talking to an uncle who knows a lot about the mind and life"

"My therapy experience has been overwhelmingly positive and genuinely life‑changing. From the very first session, I felt heard, respected, and supported. The environment has always felt safe and welcoming, making it easy to open up and explore things at my own pace.
What I appreciate most is the balance of compassion and practical guidance. I’ve gained tools that actually work in my day‑to‑day life—strategies that help me communicate more clearly, understand myself better, and navigate challenges with more confidence. I’ve noticed real growth in how I think, respond, and care for myself.
Every session leaves me feeling lighter, more grounded, and more capable. I’m grateful for the progress I’ve made and for the steady, thoughtful support that helped me get here. This has been one of the best investments I’ve made in my well‑being, and I’d wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone looking for meaningful, sustainable change."

"So glad that me and my husband were able to find a marriage counseling situation that works for us. Being a therapist myself, I was hesitant and Katie and embraced this and has been able to help me quite a lot to separate provider from wife. She presented herself in a way where we both feel supported and able to tap into vulnerability. Make plans and move in a direction that is healthy. My understanding is that Katie has a history of providing trauma services to individuals as well in addition to many other things- Very knowledgeable, Supportive, And also able to tow the line and set boundaries for us both in a way that is gentle. Thank you so much Katie and Online Therapy! My husband and I both believe that we will be able to keep our marriage intact and move forward in a healthy way and would likely not have been able to do this without the service that Katie is providing. Highly recommend this therapist, regardless of the issues that one is living with!! Danni & David"

"This program as whole is exactly what I need and have been looking for. The cost for what you get is so affordable compared to other programs. The options are convenient. The tools keep you on track. I love the online journaling keeping giving me a go to in between sessions. I love the worksheets that make me think and guide me through more than just talking with my therapist. I love the available articles to read. Lastly, I love the therapist that I am working with. Finding someone that you can talk to easily and is actually helpful is the biggest challenge with therapy for me and I couldn't be more grateful for the therapist, Karla, that was assigned to me. I will be sticking with this program for the foreseeable months ahead and feel confident that it will be my first go to if, or when, problems arise in the future."
