Do you find yourself turning to food when you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed? Emotional eating is a common issue that affects many people, but it’s important to address it before it becomes a bigger problem. At Nao Medical, we offer top-notch mental health services, including therapy for emotional eating.
What is Emotional Eating?
Emotional eating is when you use food to cope with your emotions, rather than eating because you’re hungry. It’s a common response to stress, anxiety, depression, and other emotional issues. Emotional eating can lead to weight gain, poor nutrition, and a negative relationship with food.

Therapy can help you identify the root causes of your emotional eating and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Our therapists are trained to help you work through your emotions and develop a positive relationship with food. We offer individual and group therapy sessions, as well as virtual therapy options for your convenience.
