Obesity
Heinig Health and Wellness Counseling
Psychologist, Ph.D. Clinical Psychology, M.S. Health Psychology, M.A. Clinical Psychology, PSYPACT Providers
We provide evidence-based treatment for individuals navigating obesity and weight-related health concerns, drawing on health psychology principles to support sustainable behavior change and overall wellness. Our approach focuses on the complex interplay of emotional, behavioral, environmental, and physiological factors that influence eating, activity, and health habits. Through psychotherapy, clients develop practical skills for improving self-regulation, addressing emotional eating, building healthier routines, and strengthening motivation. We emphasize a compassionate, nonjudgmental framework that supports long-term well-being rather than short-term dieting, helping clients create meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
With compassion, respect and non-judgment, I support clients experiencing obesity through integrated approaches—behavioral strategies, mindful intuitive eating, body-centered awareness, and relapse prevention—to promote health, self-compassion, and lasting lifestyle shifts. My work centers on realistic goal-setting, reducing shame, and breaking old patterns, strengthening coping skills to improve physical and emotional well-being.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Struggling with weight can be emotionally complicated. You might be dealing with shame, frustration, stress about medical feedback, or years of internalized messages about your body. For many people, weight isn’t just about food or habits—it's connected to stress, trauma, metabolism, family patterns, or emotional coping. It’s rarely as simple as “just try harder,” even though the world often makes it seem that way.
In therapy, we’ll explore your relationship with your body, food, and self-worth in a supportive, nonjudgmental space. I take a holistic and compassionate approach, helping you understand the emotional factors that influence patterns, reduce shame, build healthier coping skills, and create sustainable changes that honor both your mental and physical well-being. Whether your goal is improving health, developing a more peaceful relationship with food, or moving away from cycles of guilt and self-criticism, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
