In this episode I speak with the wonderful Denise Ratcliffe, DClinPsych. Dr Ratcliffe is a Consultant Clinical Psychologist based in London, United Kingdom. Since 2007, she has specialized in helping people with the psychological issues that may arise before and after bariatric surgery. I invited her on the podcast because she has recently published a book titled, Living with Bariatric Surgery, Managing Your Mind and Your Weight. This is an important book that I wanted to highlight on the podcast because it is filled with helpful insight and great wisdom regarding some of the emotional challenges people can confront before and after bariatric surgery. Throughout the book Dr Ratcliffe offers reality-based tips and strategies to help people overcome those challenges.
