About the Course

Psychotherapy focuses on the Correction of poor Eating Habits to create a new, healthier eating and lifestyle.

For many people, poor eating behavior leads to the accumulation of extra weight, which they struggle to get rid of. Our doctors found that there are multiple root factors that cause people to become overweight or obese. These are Psychological, Social, Metabolic, Anatomical and Environmental Aspects.Not addressing these factors simultaneously explains unsuccessful weight loss results using different diets, exercise, food supplements or slimming medications.

“Through Psychotherapy my relationship with food had to change.I knew in this season the issue we have to address as women was food. During consultation Dr.Shchukina said to me hunger is genetically wired, it’s the most difficult emotion to control. Unless you can change your mind about what you eat, why you eat and the amount you are eating, there’s nothing in the world that can change your love for ugali.”
