Obesity
Pamela Mekuz
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Q)
Living with obesity can be complex, involving far more than food choices or willpower. Weight can be influenced by a combination of biological, psychological, emotional, and environmental factors, and sometimes reflects underlying challenges that deserve greater understanding and care. I believe it's possible to work toward personal health goals while also developing greater self-acceptance and compassion for yourself along the way. Drawing on my background in eating disorder recovery coaching, I offer a nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with food and your body, consider the emotional and behavioural patterns that may be contributing to your struggles, and better understand the factors influencing your well-being. Together, we can explore what health means to you and work toward a vision that reflects your own values, needs, and goals.

Obesity is linked with mental health. People who are affected by obesity may be experiencing depression, anxiety, eating disorder. But it is very hard to find out who came first – obesity or mental health. Psychotherapy help pays a major role in treating obesity.
