Obesity
Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
Obesity has its roots in any number of profoundly deep, inner beliefs that make a person's mind and body almost 'programmed' to feel that they need to/ have to increase their weight as a way to survive. Some of these beliefs have origins in childhood experiences, such as not having enough food growing up, abuse that led to a person needing to feel bigger to protect themselves, or even that they would not receive love from a caregiver unless they were 'being a good eater', etc. Once the cause is identified, the belief formed in childhood (sometimes later) can be addressed and released, then changed into a much more helpful belief to empower a person with an increased desire for self-care. Rapid Transformational Therapy helps by suggesting these new beneficial beliefs and desires to the subconscious level of thinking, making them feel natural and achievable. If a person believes at the subconscious level that they are a person who happily desires and chooses self-care/ healthy habits, they will release and change the unhealthy habits, resulting in positive effects on their weight and health. Ongoing support after the session will be available.

Obesity
Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Weight and body concerns are often shaped by emotional, relational, and societal factors—not just behavior. I take a non-shaming, holistic approach that explores your relationship with food, body, and self. Together, we focus on sustainable changes, self-compassion, and overall well-being rather than quick fixes or rigid rules.
