Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I do not use the word “obese,” as it is rooted in stigma and can be deeply offensive. Instead, I recognize that bodies naturally come in a wide range of shapes and sizes—from small to large—and that much of the suffering people experience is caused by cultural shame and fat phobia, not by body size itself. My work draws on IFS, Health at Every Size (HAES), Attuned Eating, Body Trust, mindfulness, and narrative therapy to help clients reduce shame, build body trust, and develop a more compassionate relationship with themselves. I provide diagnostic clarity when concerns about body size intersect with mood or eating disorders.

Julia Poole
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C, ADHD-CCSP,
If concerns about weight have affected your confidence, health, or relationship with food, you deserve support without judgment. My work focuses on the emotional side of that experience, including stress, body image, and habits, while respecting your goals and the many factors that affect health.

Dr. Janelle Louis
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, ND, PMHNP-BC
I view weight through the lens of hormones, metabolism, trauma, mental health, and lifestyle—not judgment. If you struggle with obesity, I would love to help you set compassionate, sustainable goals while addressing emotional and biological factors that affect weight. You’ll be supported every step of the way.
