I work with individuals navigating obesity and weight-related concerns with a non-judgmental, psychologically informed approach. Therapy focuses on emotional regulation, shame reduction, and understanding the deeper emotional and relational patterns connected to eating and body image.

Obesity
Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
I've helped a lot of people on their journey towards inhabiting a physical silhouette that feels more like who they really are. That's the crucial question, isn't it? Does your body reflect who you feel yourself to be, in the essence of yourself – or are there overlays of habit, diet, emotion, childhood wounding, anxiety or despair that keep your silhouette untrue to yourself? The work we can do in this realm is profound and deeply changeful.

Online in Bakersfield, CA California
Bakersfield sits at the southern end of California's San Joaquin Valley and is shaped by its oil industry and agricultural economy — two sectors with distinct occupational cultures that affect how residents approach mental health and help-seeking. The city has a large and long-established Hispanic community, and bilingual Spanish-English therapists serve a critical access role for families where language barriers limit engagement with mainstream mental health services. Kern Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside a relatively sparse private practice community — Bakersfield has fewer therapists per capita than comparable California cities, making telehealth an important access route. The city's conservative political culture and strong evangelical community mean faith-integrated approaches to therapy are in consistent demand.
