Weight Management Psychology Twelve Month Transformation (Gold Coast)
Enjoy a healthy, fit and vibrant body
Have a positive relationship with food (eat well without trying!)
Develop a love affair with physical activity (yes, you can!)
Join the New Years Revolution!
Weight Management Psychology have teamed up with our good friends My Nutrition Clinic and Atkins Health to provide you with a transformational, person-friendly, and sustainable answer! Resulting in holistic improvements in wellbeing, the Twelve Month Transformation gives you time to make changes in natural, sensible, and sustainable ways. Following a psychologically informed, non-dieting, sustainable physical activity approach, delivered by a team of specialist professionals, your success will be measured, continuing throughout the whole year, and result in changes that last for life!
Rather than sign you up for a whole program, the Twelve Month Transformation involves regular assessments of progress, and a series of individual sessions, group activities, and short programs focusing on various psychological, nutritional, and physical changes you can pick and choose from. As we want to make 2017 transformational for you, we strongly encourage you make a real health focus and do every element – but ultimately your involvement is up to you!

You can also ask your GP for an Enhanced Primary Care Plan, which gives 5 Medicare-rebated sessions with a dietitian and/or exercise physiologist and can be used for Ex phys/Dietitian/and Dexa Scanning (which is done with a dietitian). You can also investigate a Mental Health Care Plan referral from your GP, which gives 10 Medicare-rebated sessions over with Glenn (Medicare rebate of $84.80/session).
