Weight Management
The deep-seated emotional and behavioural foundations of weight-related concerns are personal and unique. I offer a gentle space to explore and address this journey. The evidence indicates that our psychological well-being—including experiences such as past trauma, anxiety, or low mood—can shape our relationship with food. Moreover, the daily challenges of managing weight can itself lead to distress. Together, we can work through these delicate matters, focusing on areas such as:
-
Healing emotional eating patterns
-
Cultivating a balanced relationship with food
-
Processing past experiences that influence your health
-
Addressing weight stigma
-
Improving body image
-
Challenging self-criticism and building self-esteem
