Your consultants at Verve Health Group

Verve Health Group provides a comprehensive approach as we recognise that successful weight management requires change on many levels.

We know that to achieve successful and sustained weight loss, a simplistic approach such as 'eat less and move more' does not generally work. Verve Health Group can design a weight loss intervention tailored to you, taking into consideration your medical, nutritional and psychosocial needs.

At an initial consultation we consider what nutritional approach is best suited to you, whilst also understanding the role that food plays in your life and also how it may be relied upon for more than just energy.

 

Our range of weight management support options include:

Wellbeing Consultation

This consultation offers you the opportunity to consider habits which interfere with weight loss. From this meeting you will receive a plan of areas to experiment with change. This can be as a single consultation or over as many sessions as you need to support you whilst you are making changes. This can be in conjunction with other services we offer.

Specialist Dietitian Support

At an initial consultation we consider what nutritional approach is best suited to you, whilst also understanding the role that food plays in your life and also how it may be relied upon for more than just energy.

If you would like to develop a more individualised plan you can meet one to one with a highly experienced Specialist Dietitian. Our warm and supportive environment helps you to achieve lasting dietary behaviour change and weight loss.

Mindful eating

Over time we can become disconnected from eating; we might feel exhausted by dieting so we tune out, or food feels like a battle and so we stop enjoying the experience of eating. Often life becomes so busy that we just go through the motions with food, eating on autopilot and as a consequence eating more and feeling less satisfied. The practice of mindful eating helps to re-establish a healthy relationship with food.

The mindful eating course, designed by experienced mindfulness practitioners, is an 8-session program which focuses on helping people re-establish a healthy relationship with food and rediscover the joy of eating. A mix of mindful eating exercises, simple meditations, gentle movement and helpful information will lay down the path to a better understanding of your eating.

  • Individual Mindful Eating Coaching
    Working with a specialist dietitian, who is also an experienced Mindful Eating Practitioner, can create the space you need to understand where you need to make change. This can be done at your own pace and a way that helps you to learn how to integrate these techniques.
  • Mindful Eating Course
    Designed by our Mindful Eating expert, this is an 8-session program which combines helpful information, group discussion, eating exercises, simple meditations and gentle movement. The experience of working together will lay down the path to a better understanding of your eating.

Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD)

This 12 week group course delivered over 8 sessions relates to the latest evidence for using a Very Low Calorie Diet. You will receive intensive support from a Specialist Dietitian to help you achieve your weight loss goals and keep the weight off for good.

Specialist Clinical Psychology Support

You may have experienced things in your life which have had a significant impact on your physical and/or emotional wellbeing and so extra time to explore this is needed. Individual support with a specialist clinical psychologist is available for you to access at any stage of your weight management journey.

Using cognitive behavioural therapy and compassion-focussed approaches, our clinical psychologists can help you with a range of areas which impact on weight management:

  • Support for mental health and wellbeing including, anxiety, depression and health-related adjustment
  • Support for body image concerns and adjustment following weight loss
  • Support to explore blocks to change and integrating new habits
  • Couple support

Weightloss Medication

Alongside highly effective medication for weight loss, you will receive support from the specialist dietitian to help you adjust to the changes you need to make.
