Obesity
Allied Psychotherapy Group
Psychologist
Weight concerns are often about much more than food or willpower. Stress, emotions, habits, body image, self-esteem, relationships, and past experiences can all affect the way we eat and how we feel about our bodies. Our therapists offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore these patterns without shame or criticism. Therapy can help you understand emotional triggers, develop healthier coping strategies, improve your relationship with food and your body, and work toward sustainable changes that support your overall well-being. When appropriate, therapy can also complement care from physicians, dietitians, or other healthcare professionals.

Together, we’ll work to understand the deeper emotional layers, build self-acceptance, and develop personalized strategies that support your overall health and goals.

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.
