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!

"Therapy with my current counsellor has helped me so drastically with navigating my mind and internal world, where I now feel I have more tools to notice negative thought patterns and change my mind, therefore changing my life course. Everyone should have therapy as this has been so helpful and healing which is something we can all benefit from."

The therapy sessions, and all the tools Angela has given me have completely changed my life for the better. I will forever be grateful for her support and guidance. Online Therapy has given me my life back! Thank you!"

"I like the worksheets because they allow me to work through what I need to work through but at my own pace. So when I hit a stall point it allows me to stop, to think, to reflect and then complete them."

"I came to therapy because I was at a point where something had to change and I needed an independent and challenging view not an echo chamber, only a few weeks in but the way seems clearer and I feel stronger"
