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!

Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
My work with obesity takes a comprehensive health psychology approach, recognizing that weight is influenced by a complex interplay of biological, psychological, behavioral, and environmental factors. Using evidence-based cognitive behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches, I help patients develop sustainable strategies for behavior change, address barriers to healthy habits, and navigate the emotional and psychological challenges that can accompany weight management; I also provide psychological evaluations for patients considering bariatric surgery, with a focus on readiness, expectations, and long-term success.

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.
