Online weight loss counseling

Hi,
Does anyone recommend any online weight loss counsellors? I'd really like to unpick why I overeat, binge eat and emotional eat. Due to circumstances, I wouldn't be able to attend in person sessions so I wondered if there were any online sessions.
Thanks!

I have worked with a behaviour coach who specialised in emotional eating. It was transformational for me.
I would recommend you find someone who can help you to explore the deep routes of your emotional eating, rather than having weight loss as a goal. Just focusing on weight loss will give only a temp result. While focusing on deep reasons of emotional eating will give long lasting effect.
My coach wasn't just focused on helping me to change my eating habit but on my life/goals/meaning/wellbeing overall. It wasn't a quick fix, but one of the best things I've done for myself.

That is exactly what I'm looking for! Do you have any contact details for them?
