Stop the madness of yo-yo dieting.

With a coach who is also a psychologist, you can learn to live the life you want right now, no matter what you weigh.

If you’re like me, you’ve been yo-yo dieting for decades, and you’re done. But, you’re not sold on telling yourself you are beautiful and perfect the way you are.

Your choices are not just:

1. go on another diet

or

2: give up and feel bad

I know what it’s like to:

  • feel hopeless because you don’t want to go on another diet, but you don’t know how to feel better

  • constantly negatively compare your appearance to others

  • feel terrified that without dieting you will eat and gain weight forever

  • never feel like you look good, because your clothes are too baggy or too tight

  • deny yourself nice clothing in your current size, but you never fit in the clothes you like for long

  • feel ashamed and believe there is something wrong with you because you can’t keep the weight off

  • have a list of things you will do and places you will go when you lose the weight

  • avoid activities that require certain clothing (swimsuits!) if you can’t hide your body

  • feel like your weight, body, and dieting are all you can think about, even when you don’t want to

  • try to hate yourself thin by berating yourself when you overeat 

In coaching with me, you will learn to:

  • Understand exactly why yo-yo dieting and “positive thinking” have not worked (hint: there is nothing wrong with you!)

  • Take the number on the scale out of the equation that creates your happiness

  • Quit seeing your problem as one of willpower or motivation

  • Stop waiting to be smaller in order to live the life you want

  • Make peace with your body even if it’s not what you want it to be right now

  • Break free from the obsessive thinking that keeps you stuck in your belief that you can’t be happy until you reach your goal weight

  • Stop viewing everyone else through the negative lens of comparison

  • See a picture or reflection that you don’t like without it ruining your day

  • Make yourself immune to triggering comments from others about your body

  • Redirect the time, money and energy that has gone toward dieting into something else you’ve dreamed of doing

  • Use self-compassion rather than self-hatred to create the changes you want

Coaching with me will help you look and feel better, inside and out, than you ever have.

And unlike another diet, these results last forever.

Schedule a complimentary 45 minute consult call with me to learn more about my program and if it might be just what you need.

  • I’ll tell you more about how to disconnect your happiness from the number on the scale.

  • I’ll ask you about your experience with dieting and start helping you figure out what is keeping you stuck.

  • I’ll give you examples of what it might be like to work together.

  • I’ll make sure you have practical tips that you can start using right away.

You may be afraid that….

I’m going to tell you that all you have to do is change your thinking...

I promise, my solution is not to smile at yourself in the mirror and say “I’m beautiful” all day long. This doesn’t work, and you’ll learn why.

Some of my coaching is thought work, but there is so much more than that.

We use this to separate your weight from the rest of you, and focus on what you decide really matters.

I’m going to tell you that you should accept yourself as you are and never try to lose weight again...

My only goal is to help you stop the madness and feel better right now.

Some of my clients do feel so much better that they don’t care about weight loss anymore.

Others figure out how to make lasting changes that will keep the weight off for the rest of their lives.

I’ll help you clarify your own goals, but I have no agenda for you.

I’ll try to hard sell you my program...

I only accept clients who I believe are a good fit, so I won’t waste our call that way.

I’ll want to spend more time learning about your struggles and providing some help, than on telling you about me.  

What others are saying...

Jill asks questions that are like unlocking a little door in your brain so you can see a hallway with lots of other doors that open up to different ways of seeing things. In her gentle but organized way, she’s helped me untangle my big spaghetti bowl of thoughts and feelings so that everything makes sense and I can change so many things that I don’t like about my life. Coaching is part of my self-care.

“Because of coaching with Dr. Jill, I realized I didn’t have to be skinny to quit my job and follow my dream of working as an artist. I actually did it, and now I love my life, and this never would have happened without her! She is calm and curious and this helped me find my courage.”

Marie H.

“Jill helped me figure out a really complicated work situation where I felt stuck and didn’t even know what I wanted. I would not have thought of the questions she asked to get me to my decisions. We made a plan that helped me get through some tough meetings and now I am in a so much better place with work, and my whole life actually.”

Let's work together so you can break the cycle of yo-yo dieting for good.

If you choose to work with me, this is as a coach and not as a psychologist. Coaching does not prevent, cure, or treat any mental or medical condition, and is not a substitute for psychotherapy with a licensed mental health professional. Although I am a licensed psychologist, my coaching is a separate business that is not intended to diagnose or treat mental illness.
