About the Individual Program
What differentiates her program from other weight loss programs is that it’s multi-faceted and holistic. It addresses a persons’ entire being; Mind, Body and Spirit. It is very personalized and tailored to the individual. The ease in which people can carry out all three parts of the program is behind it’s success. Lauren’s expertise as a clinical psychotherapist allows her to treat all aspects of her patients well being. Through use of cognitive behavioral therapy, Lauren is able to help her patients determine why they have not been able to lose weight independently, even with repeated attempts.
There are no special foods, shakes, pills or omission of food groups involved. In fact, the person eats three meals and three snacks daily. People like it because all foods can be purchased at the local grocery store. Recognizing that most people either do not like exercising or find it difficult to fit into their schedule, Lauren utilizes a non-threatening and gradual approach to exercise where the activity is unique to the individual.
