Hi, I'm Dr. Kim
I am a clinical psychologist & Behavioral Weight Loss Specialist
My relationship with food and body image was complex from a very young age. At just five years old, disordered eating began to cast a shadow over my life, influencing my self-worth and how I saw the world. At 13, I still vividly remember the sting of a boy's offhand comment about my "fat legs." That seemingly simple remark was the catalyst for my first foray into dieting. In my young mind, I believed that conforming to society's ideal would shield me from such hurtful comments. The scales, calorie counts, and hushed whispers about "good" and "bad" foods became a constant backdrop to my daily life. It felt like an endless battle and one I was constantly losing.
But my turning point came with my treatment and self-discovery. It was a challenging path...
one that required me to dig deep and confront my own patterns, triggers, and emotions. Yet, as I delved into the psychological aspects of my relationship with food, I unearthed transformative tools and skills. These weren't just quick fixes but genuine, lasting solutions that addressed the root of my struggles.
It was this profound personal journey that ignited a fiery passion within me. I realized my life's mission: to empower others to break free from the shackles of yo-yo dieting and help them embrace a healthier, more sustainable relationship with food. I yearned to share my discoveries to light the way for others to navigate similar challenges.
