Creation of a therapeutic support group for people trying to change their diet (gaps/keto/low-carb/paleo)

For several years, I have been observing the challenges faced by individuals struggling with a condition and who decide to address their health through a nutritional approach.

This is because as a researcher who works in the gut-brain axis field, I also help people who are trying to switch to a low-carb, anti-inflammatory diet (GAPS, keto, paleo,…).

What I have noticed is that nutritional behavior changes are often complex.

The existence of several scientific fields entirely dedicated to behavior change, such as motivational psychology, shows us that it not as simple as deciding, "Starting tomorrow, I will eat differently".

Implementing new dietary behaviors requires a deep commitment and an understanding of the underlying motivations. Sometimes, certain obstacles may be psychological, particularly related to self-esteem or self-image. Gently addressing these aspects can greatly facilitate the process of change and support a journey toward well-being.

I would like to offer a safe space for sharing and listening, where everyone can discuss their experiences and feel supported. Whether you’re seeking advice, comfort, or introspection, a support group could be just what you need.

A support group is a form of psychotherapy that provides a space for individuals in similar situations to share experiences and listen to each other. Sharing experiences offers valuable emotional support, helping participants enhance self-esteem, validate their emotions, and manage stress effectively. Group work led by a licensed therapist can foster profound insights, empowering individuals who feel stuck to progress on their life path.

This support group is also open to parents doing a dietary change for their children.
