James Parker
Psychologist, PhD
My approach to therapy is primarily guided by Coherence Therapy. Coherence Therapy is an approach to treatment that is different from many others in that - instead of focusing on what is "negative" or "wrong" and trying to change or alter it - the purpose is to genuinely understand a person's symptoms; to curiously explore why maintaining certain patterns of thinking and behavior is emotionally necessary, even when a person is feeling stuck because of those patterns. Understanding the symptom leads to identifying the underlying emotional reasons of why we do things and addresses the cause of feeling stuck, not just the symptom, which then leads to meaningful and lasting changes. That means we will use real experiences from your life - about body image, or anything else - to help you make sense of and overcome the difficulties related to it.

I support clients in healing their relationship with their bodies by creating a safe, affirming space to explore the impact of body image, self-worth, and societal expectations. Drawing from lived experience and a body-inclusive, trauma-informed lens, I help clients challenge internalized shame, develop self-compassion, and reconnect with their bodies in empowering ways. Whether you're navigating chronic illness, weight stigma, or disordered eating patterns, my approach is centered on honoring your story and helping you build a more accepting and compassionate view of yourself.
