%X Obesity presents a steady rise in prevalence, highlighting the need to act with responsibility and social awareness. The internet has transformed the user's role, actively managing their health and emphasizing the importance of accessing quality content. The main objective of this study was to find out, specifically, how many of the resources studied included psychological intervention as one of the treatments that should be part of the multidisciplinary approach to obesity. Resources obtained through Google Chrome® were analyzed because it is our society's most-used search engine. This study shows that most centers that appear in the top positions of Google do not include psychology in their treatments. It is vital to have psychology within the multifactorial approach of obesity to guarantee the success of therapy and long-term weight maintenance. Finally, this article aims to highlight the importance of ceasing to address obesity from a purely physical perspective, emphasizing the incorporation of psychological support in its approach and prevention.
