Eating Disorders therapists in Wexford, Pennsylvania PA
Eating Disorders
Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
In treating eating disorders, I adopt an integrative approach that combines cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with psychodynamic therapy to address the multifaceted nature of these conditions. CBT serves as a cornerstone, focusing on the identification and modification of maladaptive thoughts and behaviors related to food, body image, and weight. Through structured sessions and homework assignments, I work collaboratively with clients to challenge distorted beliefs and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Concurrently, I integrate psychodynamic therapy to explore the underlying emotional and relational factors contributing to the eating disorder.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in eating disorders, my treatment approach is comprehensive and compassionate, focusing on addressing the complex psychological, emotional, and behavioral aspects of these disorders. I utilize evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and family-based treatment (FBT) to help individuals develop a healthier relationship with food, body image, and self-esteem. Through individual and group therapy sessions, I assist clients in identifying and challenging disordered thoughts and behaviors, while also addressing underlying emotional issues and past traumas that may contribute to the development of an eating disorder. Collaborating closely with a multidisciplinary team, including physicians and dietitians, I aim to provide comprehensive care and support tailored to each individual's needs. My goal is to empower clients to overcome their eating disorders, restore their physical and emotional well-being, and cultivate a fulfilling life beyond the confines of their illness.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Perfectionism and a lack of self-acceptance lie at the core of many eating disorders. I teach people how to unconditionally accept themselves instead of trying to obtain the perfect body. I also teach people how to alleviate stress and emotional problems which may very well give rise to eating problems and disorders.
