Safe & Supportive Weight Loss Therapy in Elsternwick

Unwanted weight gain often goes deeper than your dietary choices or lifestyle habits. Often, there are psychological or mental health issues causing us to make unhealthy choices. Your Psychologist now offers obesity therapy at our Elsternwick clinic, helping you achieve mental and physical wellbeing.

Together, we’ll work to determine why you may have developed unhealthy eating habits, or do not meet your weight loss goals. Any issues with body image or your relationship to food can also be addressed, improving your wellbeing in a holistic sense. 

For example, emotional eating cannot be corrected through healthy diet choices alone. Instead, the root cause of your emotional eating tendency needs to be addressed. This may be that you use food as a way to cope with difficult feelings, rely on food for comfort, or even punish yourself using food. In many ways, emotional eaters are really feeding their emotional hunger rather than physical. 

No matter the causes of your weight gain or the reasons for your difficulty in losing weight, Your Psychologist can help address issues such as:
● Emotional, compulsive or binge eating behaviours 
● Body image, self-confidence or self-esteem issues
● Depression, stress and anxiety 

Many of the above feelings can spark weight gain. Conversely, weight gain itself can also lead to these issues , potentially trapping you in a vicious cycle. If it is time to improve your quality of life and your physical wellbeing, reach out to Your Psychologist for obesity counselling in Elsternwick.

How weight loss counselling at Elsternwick’s Your Psychologist can help

In order to help you make your desired lifestyle choices, we first need to focus on your confidence, motivation and self-belief. It’s necessary to have the right mindset when approaching weight loss, so as to avoid self-destructive behaviours, yo-yo dieting, and unhealthy thinking patterns. Your Psychologist will work with you to develop this healthy mindset, setting you up for greater success with your weight loss goals.

 

Although all treatment plans are completely individualised, you might expect your therapy session to involve goal setting, self-monitoring, increasing personal motivation, and finding healthy incentives for yourself.

 

Unpack your relationship with food and identify any underlying issues that may be contributing to your weight gain with Your Psychologist.
