Obesity
Virginia Health and Medical Psychology
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologst
Managing weight can feel overwhelming, especially when emotions, habits, and medical conditions are involved. I help clients explore the psychological factors that impact eating and lifestyle choices, develop practical, sustainable strategies for behavior change, and build a healthier relationship with their body. The goal is much more than weight loss, but improved confidence, well-being, and long-term success.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
It is widely accepted that weight loss, eating disorders, and anxiety are all issues that hypnosis is successful at dealing with. All have their root in emotional issues and the habitual way people see themselves and their lives. Research shows that most people who are grossly overweight have suffered some trauma in their lives leading them to holding on to excess weight and no amount of dieting will permanently change that without resolving those past traumas and changing habits and relationship with food. I see many such clients in my practice and we are able to find them healing and moving on to healthier lifestyle. While we work on the emotional roots of eating problems, it is possible to do hypnotic Gastric Band therapy which works exactly like the real Gastric band but without the painful and expensive surgery. We can set a limit beyond which you feel full and can't eat any more.

Obesity
Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’re struggling with weight, you may feel frustrated by the cycle of starting strong and then slipping back into old habits. You might know what to eat and what to do, yet still find yourself dealing with cravings, emotional eating, or a lack of consistency. Over time, this can lead to discouragement, self-criticism, and the sense that nothing really works long-term.
I help clients change the patterns that drive weight gain—not just the behaviors on the surface. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify and shift the thought patterns that lead to overeating, all-or-nothing thinking, and loss of momentum. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we work at a deeper level to reduce cravings, strengthen self-control, and reshape your relationship with food. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you stay committed to your goals and make choices that align with the life and health you want, even when it’s not easy in the moment.
What’s often missing isn’t knowledge—you likely already understand nutrition, diets, and what “should” work. What’s missing is a way to interrupt the automatic patterns—emotional triggers, habits, and internal dialogue—that override that knowledge. Without that deeper shift, the cycle tends to repeat, regardless of the plan you’re following.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready for a different approach. If you’re willing to focus on changing the underlying patterns—not just the plan—I can help you develop consistency, reduce cravings, and create sustainable progress toward a healthier weight and a more balanced relationship with food.
