Accepting New Clients!!!! My name is Jacqueline Anthony, and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state of California and Nevada. I began my career in counseling in the 1980’s when I served as a Correctional Counselor for the California Department of Corrections. While working for the Department of Corrections, I received many life lessons that inform my practice today. Though too numerous to mention, the most salient points include the resiliency of the human spirit, the resolve of a vision, and the truth that our true and lasting wealth is “this moment, this hour, this day.”

Are you or your loved ones grappling with irritability or fatigue? Do you struggle to sleep, focus, or simply get through the day? It is possible that the emotions you are experiencing—be it anger, sadness, anxiety, or a sense of social isolation within your household—stem from a mood disorder, grief and loss, trauma, or even shame. Environmental stressors, the passing of a loved one, shifts in physical health, divorce, or other significant life changes can stir up a whirlwind of emotions and physical strain. However, remember that you're not alone, and there are avenues of help and hope available.

I specialize in treating a whole host of disorders that stem from low neurotransmitter levels, namely serotonin and dopamine. Such disorders include depression, anxiety, insomnia, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, IBS, Crohn's disease, tremor, restless leg syndrome and more. Treatment is very holistic, it involves scientifically administering precursors such as 5-htp, tyrosine, cysteine and l-dopa which the brain uses to produce serotonin and dopamine naturally. It is extremely effective with none of the downside of prescription medication.

Being seen and valued for who we truly are, particularly in a space free of judgment, bias, and pretense, is an incredible feeling. When we feel safe to be ourselves, peace and healing naturally follow. From there, we can blossom, grow, and thrive! It often takes that feeling of safety and security for the truest parts of ourselves to be free to emerge. The essence of therapy lies in the therapeutic relationship and the sense of safety that comes with it. Knowing that you are in a space where your confidence is kept, your story is protected, and your whole person is viewed with loving kindness allows for growth.

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.
