California Center for Healthy Living offers a team approach to helping you with your health and body image.
We offer help with the following:
- Healing your relationship with food so that eating becomes a joyful experience;
- Optimizing your health in all areas;
- Understanding your own body and learning to trust the signals it sends you;
- Improving your mental and physical self esteem;
- Helping to reach your natural weight;
- Making peace with your family around food;
- Learning to accept your body’s uniqueness in the context of a society inappropriately obsessed with thinness.
If you struggle with one or several of these areas, this may be the program for you! Talk to your parents about setting up an initial encounter with the doctor.
The initial encounter is conducted over two visits. At the end of the second visit, the doctor will then make a recommendation for a program based on your unique needs. This program may include visits with a registered dietician, a psychologist and/or fitness professionals.
We will involve your parents in order to provide an optimal, supportive home environment—but most of the visits will be conducted with you alone. Parents need help to best support you, but overall this is YOUR journey! Welcome!
