8-Week Group Online Sessions
8-Week Group Online Sessions
8 weekly sessions with 2 additional free monthly visits for a total 4 months.
The JA Method group sessions offer a unique blend of education, reflection, and community support—all grounded in the same core pillars: calorie awareness, mindful eating, and psychological tools for lasting change. You’ll learn to bring structure to your meals without restriction, reconnect with your body’s natural cues, and navigate the thoughts and emotions that often sabotage progress.
Each weekly 1-hour Zoom session (Friday at 7:00 PM) introduces a new mindful eating skill or mindset strategy. Between sessions, you’ll practice what you’ve learned and log your meals using the JA Method app—a simplified system that doesn’t require weighing food. I’ll have access to your log and use it to guide you in building structure around the foods you enjoy. This is not about following a rigid plan—it’s about creating habits that fit your life.
What makes the group setting powerful is the connection: hearing from others who are facing similar struggles, learning from their solutions, and realizing you are not alone. The group becomes a safe, supportive space to share wins and setbacks, reflect, and grow.
We value privacy and confidentiality, and while sessions are recorded for those who can’t attend live, what you share remains within the group. You’ll get the most out of the program by showing up, practicing the weekly tasks, and staying engaged—not perfectly, but consistently.
We meet weekly for 8 weeks, followed by monthly support sessions for 2 months to help you maintain momentum. This is not a quick fix—it’s a shift in the way you eat, think, and live.
If you’re ready to move beyond diets and build a healthier, more peaceful relationship with food—this group is for you.

Testimonials
I have noticed an interesting shift in how I treat myself—I’m becoming kinder and less judgmental. With Dr. Antoun’s guidance, I started to focus on managing my portion sizes. When I began this program, I was consuming around 3,000 calories a day without even realizing it. Logging truly helped me. It feels empowering to be more mindful about my choices. Dr. Antoun is genuinely caring and I felt that my journey is important to her also. So thank you!!
I truly appreciated Dr. Antoun’s down to earth and genuine approach. Your honest sharing of your experiences helps set the stage for genuine sharing in a non judgmental manner within the group. The fact that you are highly approachable and regularly respond while also leaving room for participants to set their own pace without pushing change has been amazing. It was just the right balance between your follow up and our personal accountability and decisions that I feel makes the lessons learned more appealing for application.
I’ve seen many nutritionists and tried countless diets, but I truly love the JA method. It has freed me from constantly thinking and worrying about food, allowing me to enjoy treats like cake or chocolate without guilt. I have learned that there are no good or bad foods— all food can be nutritious. This approach is helping me reframe everything I thought I knew about weight loss. I’ve discovered that it’s possible to check in with myself during or even before/ after a binge. I can pause, reflect, and accept setbacks as part of my journey.
