The Founder & Creator of "The Art of Weight Wizardry"
Gary
Avignon, LPC
Gary was recently interviewed on Heartbeat of America with William Shatner. During the show, interviewer, David Lewelyn asked Gary, "So, where do you see your work going over the next few years?" Without hesitation, Gary responded, "It's going to revolutionize how America thinks about weight control."
A licensed psychotherapist affectionately known as The Weight Wizard, Gary is among the most qualified professionals in the United States regarding the impact of psychological patterns on nutrition and weight and visa versa. Gary created The Art of Weight Wizardry to support individuals in the transformation from someone not capable of weight control to someone capable of weight control. The Art of Weight Wizardry treats the whole person by inventorying and balancing the seamless psychological - emotional - nutritional - weight control interface. Correcting the imbalances between these aspects of life optimizes food behavior, health, mood and weight.
Gary struggled personally with compulsive eating from 1966 to the year 2000. It was about the age of eight that he learned that, like an alcoholic uses alcohol, he could soothe and calm himself with food. At the age of forty-two, after years of committed study, he cracked the code to compulsive eating. The secrets he discovered that helped him resolve his own compulsive eating tendency are revealed to his with clients today.
Partially because of his own compulsive eating background, he has chosen to specialize in the psychology of eating and weight control as well as the nutritional and biochemical pathways that cause food cravings and compulsive eating. Gary holds a master's degree in counseling psychology and is a licensed psychotherapist. After working in, and serving as director of, one of the largest medically supervised weight control programs in The United States (1989 - 1995), Gary expanded his part-time private practice to full-time in 1995. Since then he has provided comprehensive weight control services for individuals across The United States.
Gary lives with his wife of twenty-two years, Mary Ann, and their two daughters, ages ten and thirteen, on the Blanco River in Kyle, Texas.
