Obesity
Dr. Nilgun Turkcan Ataoglu, BCT, RDT
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Licensed & Registered Creative Arts Therapist
Our relationship with food is often about much more than hunger. Emotional eating can become a way of soothing, comforting, rewarding, or nourishing ourselves when emotional needs have gone unrecognized or unmet.
Sometimes, when we have spent years adapting to others, living through expectations, or losing connection with who we truly are, food can begin to fill a space that is difficult to name.
Rather than focusing simply on weight or eating less, therapy explores what food may have come to represent emotionally and what you may actually be longing for beneath the urge to eat.
My approach is compassionate, non-judgmental, and result-oriented. Together, we work toward recognizing emotional triggers, reconnecting with your needs and your body, and discovering healthier ways to nourish yourself—emotionally as well as physically—while building a more accepting and authentic relationship with yourself.
