Emotional transformation is just as important as the physical one.
When you feel like you've been battling your brain and body for years (maybe even decades!), it can cause a lot of frustration and doubt. Feelings of low self-esteem, avoidance, discomfort and insecurity can seem like an emotional rollercoaster.
Unhealthy relationships with food & your body can be exhausting. Vicious cycles of binge-eating & dieting keep you stuck in patterns of all-or-nothing thinking.
If you're struggling to lose weight, and/or considering or have undergone bariatric surgery, bariatric counseling can provide the support & tools needed to address & navigate the challenging process of weight loss.
It's important to feel supported & celebrated along your journey - and that's where specialized counseling comes in.
Bariatric Counseling offers a place for you to develop self-compassion, strength and the tools needs to create sustainable changes.
I understand the unique challenges of the bariatric journey and want to help you process through the difficult emotions that come along with weight loss and/or bariatric surgery. Bariatric Counseling can provide the emotional support, education & non-judgmental space for you to make progress.
Redefining your relationship with food (and yourself!), improving self-image, developing healthy strategies to cope with setbacks, accountability and resources are all crucial to long-term success.
"Positive & lasting change doesn't come from a place of self hate.
You can love & accept yourself AND work toward goals at the same time." (~Lori Streator)
The stigma around weight and body image can make asking for help difficult, but I'm here to put you at ease and provide the support you've been looking for.
Please reach out to info@solairetherapy.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
I'm in network with UHC/Optum for Florida clients.
In order to provide 100% confidential and individualized treatment, I'm not in network with other insurance. (Not utilizing insurance also empowers you to choose your provider, treatment length, and style, and not have insurance interfere with your individualized needs and goals.)
We can provide a monthly Superbill that you can submit to insurance should you wish to seek reimbursement, but we cannot guarantee they will do so.
All major credit cards, FSA/HSA cards, and cash are accepted for payment.
The self pay rate for bariatric counseling is $160 intake (first session only), $135 per session thereafter (sessions are 1 hour)
Sessions are 55 minutes, although some sessions may be longer or shorter depending on your needs and preferences.
Short answer, yes!
Bariatric is simply the medical terminology for obesity. Whether or not you're choosing to undergo bariatric surgery, counseling can be beneficial to help unravel unhealthy relationship with food and improve your overall physical, emotional & mental health.
I encourage you to also read the answer below for more info!
This isn't "weight loss counseling."
Bariatric science is just that ... a science.
I have been specially trained in the science of obesity and am a Board Certified Bariatric Counselor. I have an in depth knowledge of the biopsychosocial aspects of weight, obesity & bariatric surgery.
Bariatric Counseling is not solely about weight loss, but also about educating clients on the physical and emotional underlying factors of food, surgery and mental health as they relate to weight.
My clients have often struggled with their weight and behaviors & emotions around food for many years, sometimes decades. We dive deep into where these behaviors and thoughts come from and work to build the skills that can support long term success, whatever it may mean to you.
