Our Emotional Eating Program is a small group psycho-​educational workshop designed for women 0 – 80 pounds overweight. Led by Dr. Wilsey, these 4 – 5 person eating support groups meet for 6 weeks and focus on learning how to listen to our bodies, identify the true nature of our hunger, and how to eat mindfully. The small groups offer participants a safe environment to explore her own relationship with food and her body, understand the roots of emotional eating, identify the specific emotional triggers that lead to over-​eating, and support one another in making lasting change.
