Weight Gain & Mental Health
At Serenity Psychiatric & Counseling Services, we recognize the profound impact that obesity and weight gain can have on mental health. We understand that carrying excess weight is not just a physical challenge but also an emotional one. That is why we are dedicated to offering comprehensive solutions to help our patients shed their extra pounds safely and healthily.
With the expert assistance of our collaborator, Dr. Murray E. Joiner Jr. & Associates, we provide compassionate care to guide our patients on their weight loss journey. Our focus is not just on short-term results, but on facilitating sustainable weight loss that empowers our patients to maintain their progress for years to come. Our approach is rooted in empathy, understanding, and the commitment to help our patients achieve holistic wellbeing.
Weight Loss Medications
Our clinic and our partners take pride in offering a range of weight loss medications to help our patients lose their excess weight and fight against obesity. These medications include semaglutide, lipotropic injections, and B12 injections.
Semaglutide injections are a type of medication primarily used to manage type 2 diabetes, but they have also been proven effective for weight loss. This medication works by mimicking the function of a hormone that targets areas of the brain which regulate appetite and food intake, thereby reducing hunger and helping individuals feel full faster. As a result, semaglutide injections can facilitate weight loss by helping individuals consume fewer calories and maintain a more balanced diet.
Lipotropics are a class of substances that play a crucial role in the body's use of fat. These compounds enhance the liver and gallbladder's role by decreasing fat deposits and speeding up the metabolism of fat and its removal.
At Serenity Psychiatric & Counseling Services, we offer two types of lipotropic injections: Lipo Mino Mix and Lipo Stat Plus. The Lipo Mino Mix is designed to help enhance your weight loss efforts by boosting energy and increasing the metabolism to aid in the burning of stored body fat. On the other hand, Lipo Stat Plus includes additional ingredients that not only aid in weight loss but also help improve mood, brain function, and control cholesterol levels.
Both options provide a holistic approach to weight management, targeting different aspects of your health to optimize results.
B12 plays a vital part in the body's energy production process, which can indirectly support weight loss efforts by boosting energy levels and enhancing metabolism. This increased energy can make it easier for individuals to maintain an active lifestyle and stick to regular exercise, both key components of a comprehensive weight loss strategy.
