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.

Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Weight and health are influenced by a complex combination of biological, emotional, social, and environmental factors—not simply willpower. People living with obesity may also experience emotional eating, body-image distress, shame, weight stigma, anxiety, or discouragement after repeated attempts to change.
I offer respectful, weight-sensitive therapy focused on emotional well-being rather than judgment. Together, we identify triggers, reduce shame, strengthen self-compassion, and develop sustainable coping and self-care practices. When appropriate, therapy can complement care from physicians, dietitians, and other healthcare professionals while honoring your dignity, autonomy, and individual health goals.
