Obesity
Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
I have also helped many clients to lose weight. My "Lose Weight Now" program has been successful with many people over the years. I grew up being called "Fat Pat" and therefore I know from experience how that feels. I have developed an approach, which helps people lose weight without deprivation. I have presented "Lose Weight Now" seminars for organizations and produced a CD, "Lose Weight Now," that is available on Bandcamp website. I have also presented a radio program on Mindful Eating and led workshops on this topic. I offer regular free Zoom seminars, which can help individuals deal with issues of weight loss. Please feel free to call for further information and/or a consultation: 301-229-8000.

Psychologist, Ph.D. Clinical Psychology, M.S. Health Psychology, M.A. Clinical Psychology, PSYPACT Providers
We provide evidence-based treatment for individuals navigating obesity and weight-related health concerns, drawing on health psychology principles to support sustainable behavior change and overall wellness. Our approach focuses on the complex interplay of emotional, behavioral, environmental, and physiological factors that influence eating, activity, and health habits. Through psychotherapy, clients develop practical skills for improving self-regulation, addressing emotional eating, building healthier routines, and strengthening motivation. We emphasize a compassionate, nonjudgmental framework that supports long-term well-being rather than short-term dieting, helping clients create meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes.
