Obesity
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.

I help clients explore the emotional, behavioral, and relational patterns that contribute to weight challenges.

Obesity
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.
10 Years Experience

Tucson's large Hispanic population — spanning both sides of the US-Mexico border — and its position as a university city anchored by the University of Arizona together define the city's therapy landscape. Bilingual Spanish-English therapists are in consistent demand, and therapists experienced with border-crossing trauma, immigration stress, and bicultural identity serve an important clinical role. The city's proximity to the Tohono O'odham Nation and other tribal communities creates demand for therapists trained in Indigenous trauma, historical loss, and culturally grounded care. Banner — University Medical Center Tucson provides institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community serving the Foothills, midtown, and the university corridor.
