Weight Loss
Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
Overeating is rarely just a willpower problem — it is frequently a nervous system problem, with food serving as the brain's most accessible tool for managing stress, emotional pain, and dysregulation.
Neurofeedback addresses this root cause directly, retraining the impulsive reward-seeking circuits and emotional dysregulation that drive compulsive eating. As the brain finds better ways to self-regulate, the neurological pull toward food for comfort naturally diminishes — making sustainable change genuinely possible for the first time.

Weight Loss
Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Weight concerns are often influenced by much more than willpower. Stress, emotional eating, trauma, shame, sleep, self-criticism, and long-standing habits can all affect your relationship with food and your body.
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support to help clients understand their triggers, regulate emotions, strengthen motivation, and develop realistic, sustainable habits. When appropriate, I integrate CBT, mindfulness, and hypnotherapy to support behavioral change and a healthier relationship with food. The goal is not perfection, but improved well-being, self-respect, and lasting change in coordination with medical or nutritional providers when needed.

I have helped many clients develop a healthy DELICIOUS diet, exercise regularly, and release the past traumas associated with poor body image. The protocols for doing so are extremely reliable and effective. Then we go on to pull out the root causes of the disorders.
