Weight concerns often intersect with emotional experiences, stress, and self-esteem. Therapy helps explore the deeper patterns connected to eating, body image, and self-worth while supporting a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

Obesity
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
Sherry Murray
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Obesity carries with it so much shame as our society likes to blame the victim, imagining it is all your poor choices that have caused this, and it has nothing to do with society pressures, our poor food supply, genetic differences, addiction tendencies, or all the other factors that seem to be forgotten when you are blamed. You need a place with no shame or blame but rather only a desire to understand if there are things in your life we can change, resolve, fix, or remove that may help you live your best life.

Brian McCormack (Connemara Counseling)
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A/LMHCA
I provide support for individuals struggling with obesity, focusing on the behavioral, emotional, and cognitive factors that contribute to weight-related challenges. Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, habit formation, and lifestyle-focused interventions, I help clients develop sustainable changes in eating patterns, physical activity, and self-regulation. My work emphasizes long-term health, improved self-image, and realistic goal-setting, empowering clients to build consistency, resilience, and a balanced approach to overall well-being.

Obesity
Dr. Janelle Louis
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, ND, PMHNP-BC
I view weight through the lens of hormones, metabolism, trauma, mental health, and lifestyle—not judgment. If you struggle with obesity, I would love to help you set compassionate, sustainable goals while addressing emotional and biological factors that affect weight. You’ll be supported every step of the way.
