Evonie Johnson, EJ Counselling and Coaching
Registered Social Worker, BA (Psychology), BSW, MSW, RSW
Weight management continues to be a struggle for most people, even though now we are equipped with more knowledge and understanding of fitness and nutrition than ever before. For many people, weight loss does not simply involve balancing physical activity, and food intake. For those who use food to cope with stress and distress, having the capacity to handle distressing emotions effectively is vital to weight management. Counselling and coaching can help you address and understand your relationship with mood and food, enabling you to be in control of your body and mind.

Interactive Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RPC
Lasting weight loss involves more than just dieting; it's about addressing the emotional and psychological factors that influence eating habits. Counselling for weight management offers a non-judgmental space to explore your relationship with food, identify triggers for emotional eating, and cultivate mindful eating practices. Therapists help you reframe negative thought patterns and develop healthier coping mechanisms for stress, leading to sustainable and compassionate lifestyle changes. The goal is to build a positive body image and increase your overall well-being, moving beyond a cycle of guilt and restriction toward lasting health.

Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting clients with weight loss focuses on creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where they can explore the physical, emotional, and behavioral factors influencing their health. I work collaboratively to identify patterns related to eating, activity, stress, and self-image, while helping clients develop practical, sustainable strategies to achieve their goals. Using evidence-informed approaches, including cognitive-behavioural techniques and motivational support, I guide clients in building confidence, fostering healthy habits, and improving overall well-being. My goal is to empower clients to make lasting lifestyle changes while cultivating a positive relationship with their body and health.
