Patient Success Story
“You [are motivating] me to change my lifestyle habits with encouragement and education about healthy eating. I really appreciate your support for my life-changing experience.“

Queen’s Weight Loss Patient
Counseling has long been used to help patients treat a variety of issues. But did you know that counseling is also an effective treatment for weight loss?
Weight loss counseling begins with the idea that losing weight is as much about your mental outlook as your physical output. Those who suffer from obesity are not weak-willed, but often have mental obstacles that need to be addressed.
Weight loss therapy considers all the psychological and social factors that cause you to overeat.
In many cases, patients who overeat do so to cope with emotional distress and the daily stresses of life. For example, those suffering with depression may overeat. Weight loss therapy can teach you ways to overcome these feelings without turning to food.
The psychological blocks that prevent you from losing weight are essential to address over the course of your treatment. Bariatric psychologists possess the knowledge to help you overcome mental issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, and relationship issues that hamper your weight loss goals
Behavioral therapy for weight loss teaches you coping skills. When you meet with Queen’s Clinical Psychologists and Therapists in Weight Management, you gain access to a non-judgmental listener. As a result of the questions they ask, you achieve greater insight into your feelings and behavior around food.
Putting the insights from a psychological approach to weight loss into practice, you will proactively begin to make better choices in your eating habits.
