Addressing Weight and Body Image Struggles With Your Children

My guest this week is Eliza Kingsford, a licensed psychotherapist who helps clients and families struggling with food addiction, body image, and emotional eating. Eliza is the author of the best-selling book Brain-Powered Weight Loss and her work has been featured on Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, NBC Health, CNN Health, Health Magazine, MindBodyGreen and many more. Eliza has run two different companies focused on finding solutions for adolescents struggling with overweight and obesity, and she has trained hundreds of clinicians to work with food and body image issues. She is turning the diet industry on its head by combining the science of nutrition with the psychology of eating to create lasting results for her clients.

In this episode, Eliza and I discuss how parents can address weight and body image struggles with their children. Eliza helps parents examine how they speak with their children about food and weight to promote and create a healthy food relationship for the entire family. Children struggling with body images and weight difficulties often feel isolated, shameful and guilty. Elizabeth provides helpful tips and tools to aid and encourage families to work together as a unit to create healthy eating habits and behaviors. To learn more about Eliza Kingsford click here.
