Do You Feel...

What brings people to counseling rarely arrives as one clear moment. More often it builds quietly: a feeling that lingers, a pattern that keeps repeating, a sense that something is off. If any of these sound familiar, reaching out to Foundations is a simple first step.

Consistent Weight Gain

Struggling with continuous weight gain despite various attempts at dieting or exercise, indicating a need for professional guidance on effective weight management strategies.

Frequent Yo-Yo Dieting

Regularly cycling between rapid weight loss and gain, a pattern that can be harmful to physical and mental health and may indicate underlying issues that require professional intervention.

Emotional Eating

Turning to food for comfort during stress, anxiety, or sadness, which can lead to overeating and weight gain. Counseling can help in developing healthier coping mechanisms.

Low Energy Levels

Experiencing persistent fatigue or lack of energy, which can be related to obesity and poor nutrition, necessitating professional advice on diet and lifestyle changes.

Joint Pain or Mobility Issues

Suffering from joint pain or difficulties with mobility, which can be exacerbated by excess weight, indicating a need for weight management and physical activity guidance.

Sleep Disturbances

Facing issues like sleep apnea or insomnia, often associated with obesity, where weight loss could improve sleep quality.

Body Image Concerns

Struggling with negative body image or low self-esteem related to weight, which can be addressed through counseling focused on self-acceptance and healthy lifestyle changes.

Difficulty in Managing Portion Sizes

Consistently eating portions larger than necessary, leading to overconsumption of calories. Counseling can assist in developing better eating habits.

Lack of Knowledge about Healthy Eating

Feeling confused about what constitutes a healthy diet, indicating the need for education and support in making nutritious food choices.

Answers to Common Questions

What is obesity and weight loss counseling?

It is talk therapy that focuses on the emotional and behavioral side of weight: stress and emotional eating, habits, motivation, body image, and frustration from past attempts. Foundations counselors do not create meal plans or exercise programs or give medical advice. Many people pair counseling with care from a physician or registered dietitian, so each part of the work is handled by the right professional.

How can counseling help me lose weight?

Counseling helps with the parts of weight change that willpower alone rarely fixes. You can explore what drives eating beyond hunger, such as stress, boredom or loneliness, build coping skills that do not center on food, and work through shame from past attempts. Your counselor supports motivation and accountability, while your physician or dietitian guides nutrition and medical decisions.

Will I have to follow a strict diet?

No. Your counselor will not put you on a diet or tell you what to eat. The focus is on your relationship with food: noticing patterns, eating with less guilt, and making changes you can actually keep. If you want a structured eating plan, a registered dietitian or your physician is the right source, and your counselor can help you stick with the changes you choose.

What are the costs associated with counseling or therapy sessions at Foundations?

At Foundations, each counseling or therapy session is $200. Your first consultation is always free, and you are able to meet with as many counselors as you need until you find the perfect match.

Does Foundations accept Insurance?

No. Foundations is private pay and does not bill insurance companies. If your plan has out of network benefits, we can give you documentation to submit for possible reimbursement, so check with your plan first. Paying privately keeps your counseling out of insurance records, avoids a required diagnosis, and lets you choose your counselor and how long your sessions last.

What if I need to reschedule my counseling session?

There is no charge for any session cancelled at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled appointment time.

Are you available in the evenings or on weekends?

Yes. Foundations offers early morning, daytime, evening and Saturday appointments, and online sessions can add flexibility. Call 970.227.2770 or book online, tell us what times work for you, and we will match you with a counselor whose schedule fits.

Can counseling help with emotional eating?

Yes. Emotional eating is one of the most common reasons people start this kind of counseling. Your counselor can help you notice what you are feeling before you reach for food, understand what eating does for you in that moment, and build other ways to comfort yourself or cope with stress. The aim is less guilt and more choice, not perfect control.

What if I have tried to lose weight before and it did not last?

That is very common, and it is not a personal failing. Counseling can help you look at what got in the way before, such as stress, all or nothing thinking, emotional eating or big life events, without blame. From there you and your counselor can set realistic goals and build habits that fit your life, so the next change feels more sustainable.

Will I need to exercise as part of my weight loss plan?

Your counselor will not design an exercise program, and questions about what activity is safe for you belong with your physician. What counseling can help with is the mental side: motivation, finding movement you do not dread, working around shame or past injuries, and getting back on track after a missed week. Many people find that once the pressure eases, staying active gets easier.

How is success measured in obesity counseling?

Success is not only measured by weight loss but also by improvements in overall health, emotional well-being, and the development of sustainable healthy habits.

Can counseling help if I am taking a weight loss medication?

Yes. Counselors do not advise on medication, so questions about starting, dosing or stopping belong with your prescriber. Counseling can help with what medication does not address: your relationship with food, emotional eating, body image, how others react to changes in your weight, and building habits you can keep. Many people find that pairing medical care with counseling makes the changes feel more manageable.
