Weight Loss and Emotional Eating
The diet craze has people counting. We count calories, we count carbs and we count minutes on the treadmill. Weight loss is more than calories in, calories out. When we fail to change our relationship with food, we are destined for yo-yo dieting and a weight loss/weight gain roller coaster. By healing the emotional barriers that bind us to food, we can make sustainable changes.
By addressing your emotional barriers, counseling will help you:
Gain insight into the dynamics of your eating habits
Find new and healthy ways to identify, express, and redirect key emotions without food
Learn the skills to stop obsessing about food and enjoy your life
Gradually make changes which are realistic and sustainable
Learn to generalize what you learn in real life situations to make weight loss permanent
