We work with you to provide personalized care that addresses the underlying causes of weight struggles. With medication management, psychotherapy, customized nutrition coaching, and exercise guidance, we help you feel better and achieve lasting health improvements. There is no specialized diet, but rather when you feel better you may be more likely to adhere to a reasonable diet which can lead to a healthy weight as recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (see myplate.gov). Feeling better, you may also find yourself more motivated to exercise which can improve mood and help with weight loss and maintenance. Referral to a dietician can be made if a specific diet is desired. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, or other mental health concerns, our staff is dedicated to supporting you every step of the way. We welcome seniors into the practice!
