Counselling Psychology

The Gastric Band Service/AOS team of health experts cover a full range of weight loss services. Though specialising in gastric banding and gastric bypass surgery including pre-operative assessment, operation and post-operative support, we also complement our weight loss surgeries with a full selection of other weight loss approaches and support. Drug therapy, behavioural, diet, nutritional and physiotherapy programmes can all be into your programme to offer successful and sustainable weight loss.

Whatever your specific weight loss requirement, whether you seek input or consultation with a specialist nutritionist, a physician, personal trainer, physiotherapist, life coach or alternative therapist, you can always rely upon professional and dedicated input as part of the gastric band service.

Of particular importance to many of our clients are the services and support offered by our specialist Counselling Psychology expert, Miss Emma Kewin BA Hons MSc PG Dip Counselling Psychology. Emma has great experience of working with people suffering a whole range of physical health problems and the associated psychological distress that these cause.   

Emma works for the NHS within a Health Psychology department at a Bristol NHS hospital. She also sees clients privately at SPIRE hospital Bristol. Emma has a special interest in not only helping people with weight loss and management difficulties but also assisting them to maintain behavioural change.

From initial assessments and ongoing, in depth, work with those undergoing surgery for weight loss, pre and post-operatively, Emma’s Counselling Psychology support offers an important dimension to many successful weight loss programmes.
