An Introduction & Review of DBT Skills for Emotional Eating" w/Featured Speaker: Anisa Grantham, LPC

from Bari Connected · host ProCare Health

Emotional eating after bariatric surgery can feel overwhelming, confusing, and deeply personal. In this powerful support group session, we explore DBT skills for emotional eating and how Dialectical Behavior Therapy can help you build a healthier relationship with food without shame, guilt, or restriction. If you struggle with food cravings, stress eating, binge tendencies, or feeling out of control around food, this discussion provides practical tools you can begin using immediately. In this episode we cover: • What is DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) and how it applies to weight loss surgery patients • Mindfulness techniques to identify physical hunger vs emotional triggers • Emotional regulation skills to manage stress, anxiety, sadness, and boredom without using food • Distress tolerance tools and "urge surfing" strategies for intense cravings • How to respond to emotional triggers without restriction or self-sabotage • Building awareness to support long-term bariatric success Whether you are pre-op, post-op VSG, gastric bypass, revision surgery, or on a GLP-1 medication, these DBT skills are essential for sustainable weight management and mental health support. This session is led by: Anisa Grantham, LPC, MAC Georgia-licensed psychotherapist, Master Addictions Counselor, Bariatric Life Coach, and long-term weight loss surgery patient with over 30 years of experience in emotional wellness, food addiction recovery, and behavioral change. Brenda Hoehn MSN, BSN, RN, CHTP Bariatric nurse, certified life coach, Healing Touch practitioner, and VSG patient (2013).
