Weight Loss
Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Weight loss can range from the straightforward e.g. 'I put on a few pounds after I had a baby and would like to lose it' to the complex e.g. 'I've been overweight my whole life because I was sexually abused as a child and it helps me to deflect unwanted attention from men.' Whatever your story I will address the whole person and not just the excess weight.

Mandy Randall-Gavin MBACP, UKATA
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Hons, Dip TA Prac: UKATA
If yo uwant to create a long-lasting impact on unwanted weight, then it's vital to step into the realm of psychology/counselling for weight loss. A key component to this is Stress. Stress has a direct influence on your ability to lose weight. Whether it’s the external stress of a busy life or the internal stress of unwanted weight or eating behaviours, your body is in a survival response. Our bodies will not release weight when in survival mode, it does the opposite. It slows down. If we are faced with stressful, anxiety-provoking lives, we need to learn how to stop reacting and change our responses into more mindful ones; breath, awareness, slowing down, small behaviour changes and mindfulness are all powerful tools when it comes to shifting from stress to relaxation. I can work with you psychotherapeutically to help you unpick what lies behind the energy of wanting to eat.

Rachel Bates
Registered Psychotherapist, M Phil - Counselling & Psychotherapy; M A Psychology
Weight gain through unhealthy eating habits is sometimes caused by depression. A person's mental well being can have a direct impact on their body weight. A person's perceived body image can also affect their mental health. Evidence from research shows that depression is between three and four times more likely to occur in severely obese people. A low level of self worth caused by childhood abuse, for example, could lead to food being used to create a physical barrier. Weight stigma experienced during childhood can increase vulnerability to depression, low self-esteem, poor body image, bad eating habits and decreased physical activity in adulthood. Research studies now demonstrate that weight-loss intervention can help overweight and obese people with serious mental illness.
