Obesity
Tracy Feldman-Ashdale
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
With compassion, respect and non-judgment, I support clients experiencing obesity through integrated approaches—behavioral strategies, mindful intuitive eating, body-centered awareness, and relapse prevention—to promote health, self-compassion, and lasting lifestyle shifts. My work centers on realistic goal-setting, reducing shame, and breaking old patterns, strengthening coping skills to improve physical and emotional well-being.

Obesity
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We can look at the emotions and beliefs that may be behind the obesity, then together work on a custom hypnosis plan to help you release what needs to go and rewire in the new, healthy ways to reassociate with nutrition and exercise again. If needed, we may use regression to get to a root cause memory that is holding you hostage to the obesity. We then process the associated emotions and beliefs, and let your inner child finally release long-held words and emotions. I can give you tools you can instantly use that will help you proactively make healthy choices and eventually the healthy choice becomes automatic and intuitive. We literally will install new hardware in your operating system. With repetition (playback of hypnotic recording), we are able to rewire your neural pathways until it becomes your new reality. We set realistic weight loss goals together and do this the safe, natural, and chemical-free way. Within this protocol, there is a return to safety and hope and feeling inner peace and self love again. You are already ahead of the game for understanding you're worth so much more than taking a pill.

Obesity
Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
My work with obesity takes a comprehensive health psychology approach, recognizing that weight is influenced by a complex interplay of biological, psychological, behavioral, and environmental factors. Using evidence-based cognitive behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches, I help patients develop sustainable strategies for behavior change, address barriers to healthy habits, and navigate the emotional and psychological challenges that can accompany weight management; I also provide psychological evaluations for patients considering bariatric surgery, with a focus on readiness, expectations, and long-term success.

14 Years Experience
Online in Bridgeport, CT
Bridgeport is Connecticut's largest city and one of the starkest examples of urban poverty in one of America's wealthiest states, with high rates of crime, poverty, and persistent economic inequality that create significant and underserved mental health need across the population. The city's majority Black and Latino communities have been most affected by decades of deindustrialization and disinvestment, and access to the quality mental health care available in wealthier Connecticut communities remains difficult for many Bridgeport residents. Bridgeport Hospital, part of Yale New Haven Health, provides behavioral health services, and community mental health centers offer some publicly funded care. Common therapy concerns include trauma, depression, anxiety, family and relationship stress, and the chronic psychological toll of living in a community where economic precarity is widespread and systemic barriers to well-being are persistent.
