Obesity

Alexander Fidelman

Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Eating disorders are generally developed as a way to distract from painful emotions and self-medicate and/or to gain control. 5-PATH (The Five Phase Advanced Transformational Hypnotherapy) is a comprehensive way to address and release all negative emotions, perceptions and change the inner programs (early life negative beliefs and subconscious decisions) that trigger those emotions and perceptions. It is a also a powerful way to change habits and behaviors by coding in specific behavioral patterns directly into the subconscious mind.

Obesity

Dr. Mitchell Roth

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
Conventional responses to obesity are dieting, and in extreme circumstances, surgery. Neither gets to the cause of the compulsive over-eating which has led to obesity. Treatment of obesity is complex and the subject of my doctoral project. I have published a book on the topic entitled "Obesity. A Weighty Problem & The Cure" under my nom de plume, Dr. Mitch

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania therapist: Philadelphia Couples Therapy, psychologist
Obesity

Philadelphia Couples Therapy

Psychologist, PsyD
When we hold shame about our bodies, we often become disconnected from ourselves and those around us. You might feel you have missed out on magical experiences with friends and lovers because you were distracted by comparison and cruel thoughts about your body. You might find it hard to stay present during sexual intimacy because you’re trying to imagine how your body is being perceived from different angles. Maybe you were taught by our culture or other influential figures that there was something wrong with you because of how your body looks or behaves. Repairing your relationship with your body is hard work that can powerfully shift your relationships, making you more available for pleasure and connection. We’re here for you on your journey to radical self-acceptance!

Fort Lauderdale has one of the largest LGBTQ+ communities and most established affirming therapy ecosystems in the southeastern United States, with LGBTQ+-focused practices and therapists well represented across the city and Broward County. The city's affluent waterfront and yachting culture — and its reputation as a destination for wealthy retirees and seasonal residents — create a distinctive therapy clientele that includes high-net-worth individuals navigating relationship complexity, addiction, and the existential weight of leisure-focused affluence. Broward Health and Memorial Healthcare System provide institutional mental health resources for a county of nearly two million people. Fort Lauderdale's large Brazilian and Haitian communities generate demand for Portuguese- and Haitian Creole-speaking therapists, and the broader South Florida recovery community makes addiction treatment and aftercare among the most active practice areas in the region.
