The Healing Center of West Michigan
Counselor/Therapist
Weight struggles are rarely just about food—they often reflect deep emotional pain, trauma, or patterns rooted in early experiences. At The Healing Center of West Michigan, our therapists use EMDR to explore and heal the underlying causes of emotional eating, body shame, and self-sabotage. This trauma-informed approach helps release the guilt and beliefs that keep you stuck, empowering you to reconnect with your body, make supportive choices, and approach your health journey with compassion instead of criticism. Lasting change begins with healing from the inside out.

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.
