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.

Hampton is an independent city on the Virginia Peninsula, home to Langley Air Force Base and NASA Langley Research Center, two of the most significant federal installations in Virginia, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped by a large military and federal civilian workforce alongside a historically significant Black community centered on Hampton University, one of the nation's leading historically Black universities. The intersection of military mental health needs—trauma, PTSD, transition—with the academic and identity-related concerns of an HBCU community makes Hampton a city with a particularly diverse and meaningful therapy landscape. Sentara and Riverside Health System provide behavioral health services in the Hampton Roads area, and a private therapy sector serves both military-connected and civilian residents. Common therapy concerns include trauma and military transition, racial identity and community belonging, anxiety, depression, and the stresses of federal and classified employment.
