A Bariatric Psychological Assessment is a vital step in your weight-loss surgery journey, helping to ensure you're ready for this exciting lifestyle change. This thorough assessment allows you to discover your unique strengths and identify any challenges you might encounter along the way. By diving into your motivations, habits, and feelings, you can create personalized coping strategies that will support you during this transformative phase. We'll also communicate directly with your surgeon after the assessment to provide all the necessary information needed for your surgery preparation.
Anxiety, fear, and depression can feel incredibly uncomfortable and confusing. We can work together and help you feel more in control of your life. Women are about twice as likely as men to develop depression and anxiety during their lifetime. One factor is the high levels of pressure that women experience, often taking on more of the mental load at home with the kids and sometimes elderly parents while continuing to work outside the home. We can help you discover unhealthy patterns like feelings of guilt, set better boundaries, and learn other coping skills that can help you navigate life with intention.
