Changing your behavior when it comes to eating and exercise is the key to success in any weight loss plan. The degree to which you change your behavior is directly related to the amount of weight loss you can expect to achieve.
Our behavioral health specialists will help identify any underlying disordered eating behaviors that could be at the root of previous weight gain and failed efforts at weight loss. They will work with you to conquer those behaviors, and help you to develop new, constructive eating behaviors. These services are excellent options for those who struggle with eating in response to emotions or stress, or who struggle with depression and anxiety.
With our behavioral health services, you will receive specialized individual counseling with a psychologist who specializes in weight management concepts.
If you are interested in meeting with a behavioral health specialist, either one-on-one or in a group setting, call the Weight Management Institute New Patient line at 330.375.6554 or visit summahealth.org/weightloss to learn more.
Anorexia and Bulimia are also types of problem eating. Unfortunately, our providers DO NOT treat patients with anorexia and bulimia. Please consult with your primary care physician, insurance company, and/or psychiatrist for resources for these conditions.
