Obesity
Heather Macfarlane
Registered Psychotherapist, Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist
Obesity almost always has an underlying emotional cause but emotional or comfort eating does not solve the original problem, it only adds a secondary problem on top. I can help you get to the root cause and get on track to a healthier lifestyle.

Obesity
Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Obesity is a complicated. It is influenced by biological, psychological, social, and emotional factors. It is often shaped by long-standing patterns, stress, environment, and other experiences that extend well beyond willpower or motivation. When we work together, we will explore the underlying influences on eating, body image, and self-care. Rather than focusing solely on weight or external measures of success, our work would emphasize small meaningful changes that add up over time, emotional regulation, and how to develop a healthier, more supportive relationship with your body.

Obesity
Liz Frings
Counsellor/Therapist, PG Diploma Person-Centred Psychotherapy. EMDR Accredited
There's a strong connection between mental health and weight. Depression, anxiety, trauma, and other conditions can affect appetite, energy levels, and the ability to engage in self-care. Some medications for mental health conditions can also contribute to weight gain. Therapy addresses these mental health concerns directly, which can create a foundation for overall wellbeing.
Many people struggling with obesity also experience binge eating or emotional eating patterns. Therapists, particularly those trained in eating disorders or cognitive-behavioral therapy, can help you develop healthier coping mechanisms and a more balanced relationship with food. This isn't about rigid dieting rules but about understanding your hunger cues, emotional triggers, and finding genuine nourishment.
Building Self-Compassion
Perhaps one of the most important things therapy offers is relief from shame and self-criticism. Living in a larger body often means facing stigma, discrimination, and internalized negative messages. This shame can actually make change harder, creating cycles of restrictive dieting, feelings of failure, and emotional eating.
Therapy helps you develop self-compassion and separate your worth from your weight. A good therapist recognizes that you are so much more than a number on a scale. They help you challenge internalized fatphobia and treat yourself with the kindness and respect you deserve, regardless of your body size.
