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.

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.

Healing the Root of Obesity: An EFT & IFS Approach
Struggling with obesity is rarely just about food; it is an emotional, often protective, response to life's experiences. As a therapist specialized in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help you move beyond willpower and shame to create sustainable, lasting change.
IFS Approach: Together, we will get curious about the "parts" of you—such as the inner critic, the emotional eater, or the protector—that have taken on extreme roles to shield you from pain, trauma, or shame. We won't fight these parts; we will understand them, soothe them, and help them unburden, allowing you to build a more compassionate, trusting relationship with your body.
EFT Approach: I will help you identify the emotional triggers (boredom, sadness, stress) that fuel emotional eating, transforming your emotional reactivity into conscious self-regulation. We will break the cycle of self-criticism, healing the underlying emotional wounds that keep you stuck.
Instead of fighting your body, we will work with it, fostering self-acceptance while addressing the root causes of weight gain to help you find inner harmony and health.

Heinig Health and Wellness Counseling
Psychologist, Ph.D. Clinical Psychology, M.S. Health Psychology, M.A. Clinical Psychology, PSYPACT Providers
We provide evidence-based treatment for individuals navigating obesity and weight-related health concerns, drawing on health psychology principles to support sustainable behavior change and overall wellness. Our approach focuses on the complex interplay of emotional, behavioral, environmental, and physiological factors that influence eating, activity, and health habits. Through psychotherapy, clients develop practical skills for improving self-regulation, addressing emotional eating, building healthier routines, and strengthening motivation. We emphasize a compassionate, nonjudgmental framework that supports long-term well-being rather than short-term dieting, helping clients create meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes.

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.
