Counseling
The Growing Lean twelve-week weight management program promotes nutritional, behavioral, and fitness changes essential to healthier lifestyles. Children and their parents in the program attend monthly group seminars and biweekly individual counseling sessions to assist them in achieving their goals. Between counseling sessions, children attend regular exercise classes to bolster their fitness and help them lose weight. Children are monitored throughout by a board-certified pediatrician.
Parents and children also have access to internet tools to provide additional support between counseling sessions. At the end of the course, our team of pediatricians, mental health professionals, and nutritionists will assess your child’s progress and provide you with recommendations on future steps to promote continuing improvements.
Our next twelve-week program is scheduled to begin on June 9, 2008 at the Central Lake YMCA in Vernon Hills. If you would like to make a reservation or obtain more information about the program, please contact us.
We recognize that the twelve-week program may not work for some people’s schedules or individual needs. Growing Lean therefore offers additional services that can be tailored for your family.
