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.

Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Weight and body concerns are often shaped by emotional, relational, and societal factors—not just behavior. I take a non-shaming, holistic approach that explores your relationship with food, body, and self. Together, we focus on sustainable changes, self-compassion, and overall well-being rather than quick fixes or rigid rules.

San Diego's identity as a major military and biotech hub creates dual demand for therapists specializing in veteran trauma and PTSD on one hand, and the high-functioning anxiety and burnout of the life sciences industry on the other. The city's large active-duty population at Naval Base San Diego and Camp Pendleton means therapists with military specialty training are consistently sought after, and many practices are specifically oriented toward service members and their families. San Diego's border location and large Latino population drive demand for bilingual therapists and culturally affirming care for immigrant and mixed-status families. Scripps Health and UC San Diego Health provide institutional mental health anchors across the county.
