Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Weight concerns are often intertwined with stress, emotional eating, shame, trauma, sleep, and identity—not just “discipline.” Therapy supports sustainable behavior change by focusing on nervous system regulation, self-compassion, and the real drivers behind patterns. The aim is respectful health-focused change, not punishment.

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.
