Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Transform your mindset and well-being with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy at Weight Doctor. Start your journey to a healthier you today!

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for weight loss is a great way to change habits, modify behaviours, and rewire patterns of thought.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a powerful approach that we support for achieving lasting health and weight management. Unlike other therapies that explore past experiences, CBT focuses on improving your current habits, behaviors, and thoughts.
CBT is based on the idea that your thoughts, emotions, actions, and physical sensations are all connected. These elements work together to shape your behaviors and reactions. It also understands how easy it is to get stuck in negative cycles. CBT helps break these cycles through small, manageable steps.
At Weight Doctor, engaging in consistent CBT sessions with a dedicated wellness counsellor becomes a cornerstone of your journey. Here, the objective is clear: reshaping unproductive thoughts and behaviours that have been obstacles in your path despite earnest efforts. Your tailored sessions aim to instill CBT methodologies that seamlessly integrate into your lifestyle, simplifying the weight loss process and minimizing reliance on fleeting motivation, guiding you towards a sustainable, victorious path in your health and wellness voyage.

TRAIN YOUR BRAIN
CBT encourages a transformative way of perceiving situations, fostering a shift in perspective. Instead of focusing on missed indulgences, CBT guides you to visualize and align with your true desires and goals. It offers a pathway to cultivate and hone coping strategies, apply innovative problem- solving approaches, and establish attainable short and long-term objectives independent of fluctuating motivation.
Let’s face reality: motivation is not always steadfast. It waxes and wanes, influenced by various factors such as stress levels, sleep quality, and overall fatigue. CBT aids in maintaining commitment to your goals, even in the absence of solid motivation. Imagine the empowerment of adhering to your resolutions, even on days when motivation seems elusive!
CHALLENGE NEGATIVE SELF TALK
Negative self-talk often becomes a hardwired habit, subtly ingrained over time, making it challenging to overcome independently. Our CBT Weight Loss counsellors are here to guide you through moderating this detrimental inner dialogue, ensuring it doesn’t thwart your progress. We’ll impart straightforward strategies, enabling you to silence the echoes of negativity and gently rewiring your internal communication to be more proactive, compassionate, and empowering. This refined inner dialogue will become a supportive ally in your journey towards success.

GOAL SETTING
CBT focuses on cultivating positive goal-setting behaviours and removing self-imposed barriers in your weight loss journey. For successful and sustainable weight loss, CBT emphasizes three core objectives:
- Achieve Your Desired Weight: Reach your ideal weight sustainably, avoiding feelings of deprivation, distress, and mental or emotional exhaustion.
- Establish a Maintainable Lifestyle: Incorporate a lifestyle conducive to maintaining your achieved weight, alleviating constant worries of rebound weight gain and avoiding perpetual cycles of weight fluctuations.
- Foster a Sustainable Mindset: Develop a resilient mindset equipped with strategies for timely interventions, ensuring you remain on the right path, even when challenges arise or progress seems to stagnate.
