Jill Temkin Mental Health Worker MA

Hi, I’m Jill Temkin, MA, weight loss surgery (WLS) recipient, aftercare expert, and founder of Living Thin Within. I know firsthand that weight loss surgery can dramatically improve your health and your life. I also know that these dramatic changes can be fleeting if you don’t take charge and make the internal changes necessary to support your newfound health and wellbeing. That’s why I created Living Thin Within, an innovative and compassionate approach to coaching and counseling that provides the individualized and practical tools you need to sustain your weight loss and enjoy your new body and new outlook on life—long term.

Jill has an MA in Psychology, is a Registered Addiction Specialist, and a Nationally Certified Psychodrama Trainer, Educator and Practitioner with nearly 30years of experience working in the behavioral health and addictions fields.
