Obesity
Brian Baumal
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
I lost 100lbs and currently kept it off for eight years (I started August 15, 2012). I remember at my heaviest weight, I wanted to talk to someone who had been there, done that & understood I so badly wanted to change and my frustration at not changing. I wanted someone who could quiet my mind when it worried about my weight and help me gain control of my body and life. I know what it's like to start losing weight, only to abandon the effort shortly thereafter. If you repeat that pattern and put your health and quality of life at risk, then you likely feel that there are issues that need to be addressed psychologically - I can help!
I find people struggling with obesity to keep saying "how will this time be different", or "I am sick and tired of being sick and tired" or "Why am I deliberately ruining my health." Those struggling with obesity have these thoughts going through their head constantly, and even obsessively. My goal in therapy is to use my own experience of successful weight loss, the latest medical theories of obesity and a good solid approach to therapy to address these issues.

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.

Obesity
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.

Satvinder Khurme

Obesity is linked with mental health. People who are affected by obesity may be experiencing depression, anxiety, eating disorder. But it is very hard to find out who came first – obesity or mental health. Psychotherapy help pays a major role in treating obesity.
