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.

I help clients explore the emotional, behavioral, and relational patterns that contribute to weight challenges.

The focus is on building self-awareness, healthier choices, and a compassionate relationship with your body and self.

Obesity
Sherry Murray
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Obesity carries with it so much shame as our society likes to blame the victim, imagining it is all your poor choices that have caused this, and it has nothing to do with society pressures, our poor food supply, genetic differences, addiction tendencies, or all the other factors that seem to be forgotten when you are blamed. You need a place with no shame or blame but rather only a desire to understand if there are things in your life we can change, resolve, fix, or remove that may help you live your best life.

Obesity
Brian McCormack (Connemara Counseling)
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A/LMHCA
I provide support for individuals struggling with obesity, focusing on the behavioral, emotional, and cognitive factors that contribute to weight-related challenges. Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, habit formation, and lifestyle-focused interventions, I help clients develop sustainable changes in eating patterns, physical activity, and self-regulation. My work emphasizes long-term health, improved self-image, and realistic goal-setting, empowering clients to build consistency, resilience, and a balanced approach to overall well-being.
