At Isimi Health & Wellness, we recognize that achieving and maintaining a healthy weight is about far more than appearance.
It's an essential component of overall physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Weight influences nearly every aspect of health, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, sleep quality, chronic pain, hormone regulation, self-esteem, and long-term quality of life.
Our Medical Weight Management program combines evidence-based medicine with individualized care to help patients achieve sustainable, healthy weight loss while improving their overall wellness.
Rather than focusing on temporary diets or quick fixes, we develop personalized treatment plans that address the biological, behavioral, psychological, and lifestyle factors contributing to weight gain.
Mental health and physical health are deeply interconnected.
Conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, chronic stress, and emotional eating can significantly affect appetite, metabolism, motivation, sleep, and long-term weight regulation. Likewise, obesity and metabolic disease may contribute to worsening mood, reduced energy, lower self-confidence, and increased risk of depression and anxiety.
As a psychiatric practice, we understand these relationships and integrate behavioral health into every weight management plan. This whole-person approach allows us to treat not just the number on the scale, but the factors that influence lasting success.
Every patient's journey begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation. Your treatment plan may include:
- Comprehensive health and medication review
- Nutrition and lifestyle counseling
- Physical activity recommendations
- Behavioral strategies to support sustainable habits
- Ongoing monitoring and accountability
- Laboratory evaluation when clinically indicated
- Prescription weight management medications when appropriate
For appropriate candidates, we offer treatment with FDA-approved GLP-1 and dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist medications as part of a comprehensive medical weight management program.
These medications may include:
- Semaglutide (Wegovy®)
- Tirzepatide (Zepbound®)
Medication is never viewed as a stand-alone solution. Instead, it serves as one component of a comprehensive treatment plan focused on long-term health and sustainable lifestyle change.
Our approach combines expertise in psychiatry with evidence-based obesity care, recognizing that successful weight management requires addressing both physical and mental health.
Patients receive individualized care in a supportive, judgment-free environment where treatment decisions are guided by current clinical evidence and tailored to their unique goals.
Medical Weight Management at Isimi Health & Wellness is uniquely informed by expertise in both psychiatric and metabolic health. Our provider has completed advanced Medical Weight Loss training through the American Academy of Procedural Medicine (AAOPM), allowing us to integrate evidence-based weight management with behavioral health strategies to support lasting success.
