Does anyone have a Bariatric counselor they’d recommend, online preferably? I’m four weeks out and struggling with the mental barrier of not being able to turn to food to deal with emotions.

Great question, @River315. I've been looking into this as well, especially a qualified therapist, not a coach.

Welcome!

Yeah, the surgery is the easy part of this process.

I found my therapist through my PCPs office. Maybe ask your surgical team if they have any recommendations..?

Perhaps your county has a mental health system that can help? Try to find someone who deals with eating disorders.

For my pre-op, I used Advantage Point online. I had a great experience. http://www.advantagepointbehavioral.com/

Some from my support group have recommended Better Help, which is fully online.
