If you are experiencing difficulties adapting to the inevitable life changes and transitions that are part of the human experience, it may be the right time to seek the guidance of a psychologist. My overall goal is to help my clients attain balance and a healthier level of functioning through the development of insight, self awareness, coping skills and stress management strategies. By creating a safe and supportive environment for this learning to occur, clients improve their ability to deal with everyday stressors and ultimately increase their overall quality of life.

We all desire to be loved and accepted, to feel safe and secure, to achieve our goals and fulfill our purpose, and to like who we see in the mirror. Unfortunately, life has a way of placing obstacles on our path that can potentially impair our ability to function at our greatest level. For some of us, these events are so painful that all hope seems to be lost. In order for healing to begin, we need a safe and supportive environment where our thoughts and feelings are validated, where we are able to process and heal from painful experiences, and where we are able to identify our most important needs and meet them in healthy ways.

Obesity Therapists

Can obesity be a cause of depression and anxiety?

Yes. It can be stressful and debilitating to carry excess weight. Many people make inaccurate assumptions about people who are overweight. This stigma may lead individuals to feel badly about themselves, decreasing their self-esteem, or leading to feelings of worthlessness. An association between obesity and depression is well-established.

When should an individual seek treatment for obesity?

When obesity, or the feelings it causes, creates a disruption in your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Examples include avoiding social situations due to anxiety, an inability to participate in family life as a result of health problems, or poor performance at work due to low self-esteem or other concerns.

Are there specific medications for weight loss?

There are several prescription drugs that can help with weight loss, including semaglutide and phentermine. These drugs reduce appetite and must be prescribed by a physician. Professionals will suggest lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, before turning to drugs, which have side effects and typically are prescribed only for a short duration. Many people regain weight after taking weight loss drugs if they have not made significant lifestyle changes.

What is body positivity?

Body positivity is a cultural movement that promotes the acceptance of bodies of all sizes and types, rather than those that conform to societal ideals of beauty. It places self-worth, self-acceptance, and an appreciation for one’s body as goals to achieve a happier, healthier attitude about oneself and others, focusing on who a person is rather than what they look like.
