Weight Loss Therapists in Mississauga, ON
You think about food more than you want to. Maybe it’s constant mental noise—what to eat, what you “shouldn’t” eat, how to feel in control again. You might go through cycles of trying to be “good,” feeling off track, and starting over. At the same time, you’re high-functioning in other areas of your life—which makes this even more frustrating.

Are you smart, driven, career-focused woman in Ontario who is juggling 85 things at 120% until you crash and scroll mindlessly while also watching Netflix ordering Uber Eats? It looks like you have it all together on the outside, but your mind is racing like a browser with 30 tabs open. Your inner critic is loud, nothing is ever “good enough” and life feels like an endless chore. You wonder if it’s ADHD, depression, burnout... You’ve tried the books, meditation, journaling, podcasts, walks, cleaning up your diet. Your nervous system is in fight-or flight, you know you need to "love yourself", but what does that even actually mean?.

Do you ever feel like you're carrying something you don't quite have the words for? Like there's a whole inner world running in the background and no real space to let it out? Growing up as an only child in a South Asian household after immigrating to Canada, I learned early how heavy that silence can be. The gap between who you are at home and who you are in the world is real, and so is the exhaustion of trying to bridge it alone. You don't have to have it all figured out before you reach out.

I work with a wide range of people, approaching each person with curiosity, attentiveness, and care through a trauma-informed, attachment-based lens. I recognize how past experiences and relationships shape the present, and I strive to create a space where clients feel emotionally safe, understood, and securely met as they are. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed by their emotions, disconnected or numb, or unsure of what they feel. Through attuned presence and genuine care, I aim to help clients feel less alone with their pain, gently process difficult experiences, and build greater connection to themselves and others.

I believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. I have helped hundreds of individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As a relational therapist, I appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. I do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, I see my clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. I see strengths and I see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

What is the relationship between weight management and mental health?
Mental health can be significantly influenced by one's physical health, so overall improvements in one's quality of life as a result of improved physical functioning from weight loss can have an overall positive impact on an individual's mental health and allow them to engage more readily in everyday activities. In addition, many strategies used to manage weight, such as exercise and maintaining a healthy diet, are also associated with reducing the symptoms of common mental health conditions, such as anxiety or depression. Individuals may also benefit from the improved self-esteem and self-efficacy that can come with successful weight management.
What is the psychological approach to losing weight?
While there are no specific therapy modalities specifically for weight loss, common psychological therapies can be highly effective in helping clients make lasting lifestyle changes. This may be called the "psychological approach" to weight loss because it does not rely on physical interventions, such as medication or weight loss surgery, to help clients lose weight. Weight loss counselling can be used in addition to or instead of such physical interventions. Some clients simply seek therapy to address the challenges that may accompany weight loss in general, including negative thoughts surrounding their body, disordered eating patterns, or difficulty completing daily tasks as a result of their weight challenges. In such cases, therapists will often utilise behavioural coaching or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to help clients understand how their thoughts may be influencing their diet and physical activity patterns.
What type of therapy is commonly used in weight loss counselling?
Weight loss counseling often involves a combination of therapy and psychoeducation. Common techniques used by weight loss counselors include journalling, thought diaries, and other Cognitive Behavioural Therapy strategies that encourage clients to consider how their feelings about their weight loss impact their mental health. Weight loss counsellors may also teach clients mindfulness exercises, which can be used by clients during and after eating to be more aware of physical cues from their body surrounding eating. Some clients looking for weight loss therapy may also benefit from group therapy approaches, which utilise the power of social connection and accountability to help clients adhere to their weight loss plan.
Is therapy recommended for individuals undergoing bariatric surgery?
While therapy is not a requirement for individuals undergoing bariatric surgery, many individuals undergoing weight loss surgery may benefit from seeing a counsellor. Prior to surgery, counsellors can help clients decide whether surgical weight loss is a good fit for them and assist in surgery preparation. Post-surgery, counsellors can assist clients with the psychological component of maintaining their weight loss, as well as help clients navigate any postoperative pain. Throughout the surgical process, therapists can help clients process body-image challenges that may come with dramatic changes in weight, as well as manage symptoms of anxiety or depression that may accompany the major life changes bariatric surgery can bring.
