Bariatric weight loss Councelor?
Does anyone know of a good psychologist in the lower mainland that does pre op counseling with bariatric patients? I'm not worried about getting depressed after the surgery I just want to work on some strategies for dealing with my emotional eating so that after i have the surgery I don't continue in my old habits. I am going to Mexico for the surgery as I am self pay so I don't really get any psychology screening before hand.
Hi
I just read your post. Its a bit late but Ive just been referred to Dr Michael Lyon at the Medical Weight Management Centre in Coquitlam. Its a full program that includes Cognitive therapies. You need a doctors referral and its covered by MSP. Here's the website: https://www.medweight.ca
Good luck on your journey.
