Obesity
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We can look at the emotions and beliefs that may be behind the obesity, then together work on a custom hypnosis plan to help you release what needs to go and rewire in the new, healthy ways to reassociate with nutrition and exercise again. If needed, we may use regression to get to a root cause memory that is holding you hostage to the obesity. We then process the associated emotions and beliefs, and let your inner child finally release long-held words and emotions. I can give you tools you can instantly use that will help you proactively make healthy choices and eventually the healthy choice becomes automatic and intuitive. We literally will install new hardware in your operating system. With repetition (playback of hypnotic recording), we are able to rewire your neural pathways until it becomes your new reality. We set realistic weight loss goals together and do this the safe, natural, and chemical-free way. Within this protocol, there is a return to safety and hope and feeling inner peace and self love again. You are already ahead of the game for understanding you're worth so much more than taking a pill.

Jennifer A Kodrik, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Weight struggles are rarely just about food — they're tangled up with stress, habits, and how you see yourself. I help clients understand what's really driving the cycle so we can build an approach that's sustainable, not just another short-term fix.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Struggling with weight can be emotionally complicated. You might be dealing with shame, frustration, stress about medical feedback, or years of internalized messages about your body. For many people, weight isn’t just about food or habits—it's connected to stress, trauma, metabolism, family patterns, or emotional coping. It’s rarely as simple as “just try harder,” even though the world often makes it seem that way.
In therapy, we’ll explore your relationship with your body, food, and self-worth in a supportive, nonjudgmental space. I take a holistic and compassionate approach, helping you understand the emotional factors that influence patterns, reduce shame, build healthier coping skills, and create sustainable changes that honor both your mental and physical well-being. Whether your goal is improving health, developing a more peaceful relationship with food, or moving away from cycles of guilt and self-criticism, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Obesity
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.
