Obesity
Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my approach to supporting clients dealing with obesity, I blend a compassionate understanding of the emotional and psychological dimensions of weight with practical strategies for change. By integrating holistic methods such as Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, I create a personalized plan that addresses both the mind and body. This tailored approach helps clients uncover underlying emotional triggers, improve self-esteem, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Through our work together, we explore lifestyle changes that support physical health, while also addressing the psychological factors that contribute to obesity. My goal is to empower clients to make sustainable changes, fostering a positive relationship with food and exercise, and ultimately, achieving a balanced and healthy life. For individuals seeking support in their journey toward weight management and overall wellness, I am committed to providing a nurturing and supportive environment to explore, grow, and succeed.

Ekum Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Obesity is a complex health condition characterized by excessive body fat that can negatively impact overall well-being. It is often measured using the Body Mass Index (BMI), which considers weight in relation to height. Obesity can lead to various health issues, including diabetes, heart disease, and joint problems, and is influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors. Addressing obesity involves a multifaceted approach that includes healthy eating, regular physical activity, and behavioral changes. It's important to promote understanding and compassion, as individuals facing obesity may encounter stigma and misinformation. Supportive environments and resources can empower individuals to make positive lifestyle changes and improve their health.

Freedom & Hope Counselling and Therapeutic Services
Licensed Professional Counsellor, RPC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
This topic is inherently distressing for many. Once comfort and connection are established, attention shifts towards addressing, discussing, and hopefully resolving the root causes of trauma and pain below it. The primary concerns revolve around physical health and overall well-being, not weight perception.
