All our gastric balloon patients can book Weight Counselling through our team. Our issues with weight are often more complicated than we let on, and sometimes go further than the need to change our diets. As medical weight loss specialists, it’s important that we understand that some of our patients may need a little extra support, and as such we are pleased to offer Weight Counselling with the fantastic Dr Mark Bruce.
Dr Bruce’s aim is to work with you and get to the bottom of your weight-related issues, which may span from a moment or several moments in your childhood, adolescence, or later life. Confronting these problems in a safe, informed environment, has proven extremely beneficial to those looking to really overcome the psychological components of those things which are contributing to weight gain, or struggle with weight loss.
It is extremely common for personal traumas to impact our weight and relationship with ourselves and food. If you feel as though this is the case for you, then Weight Counselling may be the best option to support your weight loss alongside a gastric balloon.
Weight Counselling through Allure Weightloss comes as an additional cost due to the nature of the necessary expertise. These sessions last around 60 minutes. Coupled with out non-surgical medical weight loss devices, the 4-, 6-, and 12-month gastric balloons, patients look to lose 10 – 15% of their body weight on average.
Taking advantage of his vast professional experience, Dr Bruce will be able to tailor the sessions to you, making sure that you get the most out of them. These sessions will be conducted virtually and arranged with you in terms of time and convenience. Dr Bruce specialises in weight and eating-related conditions, as well as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. He holds a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology (D. Psych), from Glasgow Caledonian University.
