Regain Balance, Inside and Out

Evidence-based weight care designed with mental health in mind.

Weight changes can affect confidence, health, and overall well-being. For many people, these changes are connected to mental health diagnoses and the side effects of psychotropic medications. At Breakthrough HQ, our weight management services are built around this connection — combining psychiatric insight with personalized support to help you achieve sustainable, long-term results.

Our Approach

Psychiatric Perspective

We recognize the close connection between mental health and weight. Conditions such as depression, anxiety, binge eating disorder, and other mental health diagnoses — along with the effects of psychotropic medications — can all impact weight, appetite, and metabolism. Our approach addresses these unique challenges with safe, evidence-based strategies.

Personalized Plans

Every patient’s journey is different. We design treatment plans that consider your psychiatric history, current medications, lifestyle, and goals, so your plan truly fits you.

Whole-Person Care

Lasting change is about more than numbers on a scale. We support your overall health by addressing nutrition, sleep, stress, and mental wellness alongside medical treatment.
