counselling victoria bc



Recommended Posts

Hi,

Does anyone know of any good counsellors in Victoria BC? I am at the beginning of my LapBand journey (I hope) and I am thinking I need some counselling to address my emotional eating issues.

Thanks,

Laura

Hi Laura, I live in Victoria as well. I was just banded in Dec. There are a couple links for support for weight loss surgery patients that I will send you if you private message me.

As far as good 'professional' counsellors I don't know. Maybe ask your GP. There are a few community based counselling centres depending on what area of town you live it.

Good luck on your journey...I am happy to meet someone else from Victoria.

How about something like Overeaters Anonymous? I'd think about it if there were meetings nearby me. I looked and there are some in Victoria, several days a week. If you go here : http://www.oa.org , you can look it where and when, in your city.

:)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
