One of the most important things about weight loss is that struggling to maintain a healthy weight is a SYMPTOM of some other kind of issue (such as anxiety, trauma, depression etc) When I support people to manage a healthy weight, what I really do is help them to develop a healthy relationship with themselves. In our highly filtered, high pressure, black-and-white-thinking society there is a lot of shaming of people who don’t look a certain way. The shaming comes from externally and often from within as well. I will work with you to help you love yourself for all that you are (not just how you look). I will help you to resolve past traumas that are impacting on your ability to manage your weight and I can help you to find the motivation to look after your body. I’m less interested in a number on a scale and more interested in how you feel about yourself, how motivated you are and how you can create healthy living patterns that actually nurture and excite you rather than punishing you. I am not a nutritionist, you’ll have to find the food solution that works for you elsewhere. However once you have resolved the mental and emotional stuff, the food component will be easy. I recommend an intensive 3 sessions up front and then another session/month for the first few months while you create your new healthy life and it becomes an ingrained pattern.
