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.

Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
My work with obesity takes a comprehensive health psychology approach, recognizing that weight is influenced by a complex interplay of biological, psychological, behavioral, and environmental factors. Using evidence-based cognitive behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches, I help patients develop sustainable strategies for behavior change, address barriers to healthy habits, and navigate the emotional and psychological challenges that can accompany weight management; I also provide psychological evaluations for patients considering bariatric surgery, with a focus on readiness, expectations, and long-term success.

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.

Spokane is eastern Washington's largest city and serves as the commercial and healthcare hub for a vast inland region — the Inland Northwest — creating a therapy community that draws clients from across a wide geographic area and addresses the particular stressors of rural and small-town communities alongside its own urban population. The city has a significant veteran and active-duty military population connected to Fairchild Air Force Base, and therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and service-to-civilian transition serve an important role. Providence Health and MultiCare Health System provide major institutional mental health resources alongside Washington State University's Spokane health sciences campus, which feeds clinical training into the local community. Spokane's economic challenges — including persistent poverty in some neighborhoods — mean therapists here frequently work with economic stress, substance use, and the compounding effects of long-term financial precarity.
