Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Obesity is a complex health condition characterized by excessive body fat that can negatively impact overall well-being. It is often measured using the Body Mass Index (BMI), which considers weight in relation to height. Obesity can lead to various health issues, including diabetes, heart disease, and joint problems, and is influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors. Addressing obesity involves a multifaceted approach that includes healthy eating, regular physical activity, and behavioral changes. It's important to promote understanding and compassion, as individuals facing obesity may encounter stigma and misinformation. Supportive environments and resources can empower individuals to make positive lifestyle changes and improve their health.

Brian Baumal
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
I lost 100lbs and currently kept it off for eight years (I started August 15, 2012). I remember at my heaviest weight, I wanted to talk to someone who had been there, done that & understood I so badly wanted to change and my frustration at not changing. I wanted someone who could quiet my mind when it worried about my weight and help me gain control of my body and life. I know what it's like to start losing weight, only to abandon the effort shortly thereafter. If you repeat that pattern and put your health and quality of life at risk, then you likely feel that there are issues that need to be addressed psychologically - I can help!
I find people struggling with obesity to keep saying "how will this time be different", or "I am sick and tired of being sick and tired" or "Why am I deliberately ruining my health." Those struggling with obesity have these thoughts going through their head constantly, and even obsessively. My goal in therapy is to use my own experience of successful weight loss, the latest medical theories of obesity and a good solid approach to therapy to address these issues.

Bhavna Lalwani

Struggling with weight or obesity can affect not only physical health but also emotional wellbeing, self-esteem, and daily life. It can be accompanied by feelings of frustration, guilt, or shame, and sometimes it feels like efforts to change aren’t enough.
In therapy, I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with your body, food, and habits. Together, we focus on developing healthier coping strategies, building self-compassion, and creating sustainable approaches that support both your emotional and physical wellbeing.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Weight and obesity are often treated as simple issues of willpower, discipline, or appearance — but in reality, they can be deeply connected to trauma, neurodivergence, chronic pain, emotional regulation, burnout, hormones, shame, medical experiences, sensory needs, and the exhausting pressure of constantly feeling judged or “not enough.”
My approach goes beyond shame, blame, or generic advice. Together, we explore the deeper patterns that may be impacting your relationship with food, movement, motivation, self-worth, and your body while working toward more compassionate, realistic, and sustainable change.
This work is not just about weight. It is about understanding yourself more fully, reducing shame, reconnecting with your needs, and building a life and relationship with your body that feels more supportive, meaningful, and workable.
