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.

Edison is a Middlesex County township named for Thomas Edison, who established his famous Menlo Park laboratory here, and has become home to one of the largest South Asian-American communities in the United States, with a large Indian-American and Indian immigrant population concentrated particularly in the Oak Tree Road corridor, creating a distinctively South Asian cultural character and specific mental health dynamics. The mental health landscape is shaped significantly by the experiences of a highly educated, professional South Asian community navigating intergenerational family expectations, immigration adjustment, mental health stigma within South Asian cultural norms, and the challenges of bicultural identity. A growing number of South Asian mental health practitioners serve the community alongside broader general practice. Common therapy concerns include South Asian family expectations and intergenerational conflict, immigration and acculturation stress, mental health stigma, relationship and marriage pressures, anxiety, and the complex identity navigation of Indian-American and desi identity in suburban New Jersey.
