Hello. I'm Denise Lamothe, known as Dr. Denise, and I am thrilled to join Ann Louise's team as her expert on emotional eating. I live and work in New Hampshire and enjoy snowshoeing, hiking, bicycling, walks on the beach and lots of quiet time for meditation and relaxation. I have a loving and devoted partner, three amazing children, five lively grandchildren (who are all busily approaching adolescence) and a precious, talented West Highland therapy dog named Sapphi.

I have been always been interested in food control issues, having survived multiple eating disorders during my lifetime. I credit Ann Louise's program for my own weight loss success and many others along my path for helping me to work on my emotional and spiritual issues. Happily, I now I enjoy a life of zest and balance, having learned that this issue is about much, much more than food. As a Clinical Psychologist, and Doctor of Holistic Health, I now devote all of my time to helping others achieve emotional and spiritual balance in their lives as well. Without this, weight loss is futile. This is why I join with Ann Louise to encourage you to attend to all of your needs physical, emotional, social and spiritual.

In my book, The Taming of the Chew, I address the emotional, social and spiritual difficulties associated with food control. I provide counseling for individuals and groups in my private practice in New Hampshire and I am available to do personal telephone consultations as well. I also am available to travel to your location for private, intense personalized work.
