PROUD TO SHARE MY BARIATRIC COUNSELLING & BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL REFERRAL PATHWAY

**PLEASE LIKE, SHARE with others on your feeds, SUPPORT***

Many patients are medically ready for bariatric surgery, yet emotionally underprepared for the psychological, behavioural, identity, and lifestyle changes that follow.

Through DESA Holistic Wellbeing, in collaboration with Better Life Surgery & Dr Mo Atalla, I provide trauma-informed counselling and biopsychosocial support to help bridge the gap between surgical readiness and emotional wellbeing.

With over 12 years of counselling experience — alongside my own lived bariatric journey — my focus is on supporting patients before and after surgery through:

• Emotional readiness support
• Bariatric psychosocial assessments
• Emotional eating support
• Identity & confidence counselling
• Post-operative adjustment support
• Long-term empowerment and behavioural change strategies

My goal is to help patients feel emotionally supported, empowered, and equipped for sustainable long-term wellbeing — not just physical transformation.

📍Consulting locations across VIC + Telehealth available
📅 Saturday appointments available

Happy Mother’s Day to every woman nurturing life, love and transformation in her own way 💐🤍

Today we celebrate mothers…
mothers of rainbow babies and angel babies…
stepmums, aunties, grandmothers and caregivers…
fur baby mums 🐾
and every woman who pours love, strength and support into others.

We also celebrate the quiet transformations women go through every single day.

The healing.
The rebuilding.
The sacrifices.
The resilience.
The courage to keep showing up even when life feels heavy.

As someone who works in empowerment and transformation support, I see firsthand how powerful women truly are — even in the moments they doubt themselves most.

Today is not only about celebrating motherhood…
it is about celebrating empowering transformation, unconditional love and the strength behind every nurturing soul 💛

The 2nd photo is what my daughter gave me this morning and it truly melted my heart 🥹✨

Take a moment today to honour yourself too 🤍

Tag a beautiful mother, caregiver or inspiring woman below who deserves to feel celebrated today 👇✨

EMPOWERNMENT COACHING TESTIMONIAL:

Messages like this remind me why I continue doing this work 💛

Supporting people through life transitions, challenges, healing and personal growth is something I never take lightly.

Empowerment is not about perfection.
It’s about helping people reconnect with themselves, their strength and their direction again.

Thank you Jen for trusting me over the years and for allowing me to share your beautiful words ✨

✨ SHE DIDN’T JUST LOSE WEIGHT… SHE FOUND HERSELF ✨

This AI Met Gala trend image may look glamorous… but the deeper meaning behind it is what truly matters. 💫

Every man and woman I sit beside in sessions reminds me that bariatric surgery is never just about weight loss.

It’s about identity.
Confidence.
Healing.
Self-worth.
And learning to see yourself differently again.

As a bariatric counsellor and transformation coach, I walk beside my clients through the emotional transformation that happens beyond the scales.

The fears.
The grief.
The self-doubt.
The breakthroughs.
The moments they finally begin reconnecting with themselves again.

Because transformation is not only physical.
It’s mental. Emotional. Spiritual.

This image symbolises stepping into your power.
Taking up space.
Feeling seen.
And allowing yourself to evolve into the version of yourself you were always meant to become. ✨

Behind every transformation is a story people don’t always see.

And that is why support matters. 🤍

💫 ALSO NOW OFFERING: Post-Op Weight Loss Empowerment Photography Packages 💫

Because after everything you’ve overcome… you deserve to FEEL powerful, confident, glamorous and seen.

Yes — you can absolutely have your own “Met Gala worthy” moment too. ✨

These packages combine:
🤍 Empowerment coaching
🤍 Styling support
🤍 Professional photography
🤍 Confidence & identity transformation

For the men and women ready to celebrate how far they’ve come. 🌟

📩 DM me “TRANSFORM” for more information.

Bariatric surgery is a tool… not the full solution.
No one really prepares you for the emotional and mental side of this journey.

My surgeon told me:
“We all need a counsellor. You need support behind you.”

And he was right.

Because you can change your body…

but if you don’t feel safe within yourself,
the patterns don’t just disappear.

This is why support matters.

This is why having the right team (surgical) matters.

You don’t have to do this alone.

If you’re on this journey and want real support that understands—
message me “SAFE” 💛

👉 Or comment “SAFE” and I’ll reach out to you 💛
