Dr. Alexavery Hawkins
Psychologist, PhD
I help people create flexibility and self-compassion as they heal from their negative relationship with their body and move away from diet culture. My goal is for clients to progress out of the strict, perfectionistic, and harsh rule-based mindset to a place where they can live a more full, empowered, and joyous life.

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.

Elizabeth Moffett, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Psychotherapist
Utilizing Brainspotting as well as discussing Eating Disorders Anonymous: The Story of How We Recovered from Our Eating Disorders presents the accumulated experience, strength, and hope of many who have followed a Twelve-Step approach to recover from their eating disorders. Eating Disorders Anonymous (EDA), founded by sober members of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), have produced a work that emulates the “Big Book” in style and substance. EDA respects the pioneering work of AA while expanding its Twelve-Step message of hope to include those who are religious or seek a spiritual solution, and for those who are not and may be more comfortable substituting “higher purpose” for the traditional “Higher Power.” Further, the EDA approach embraces the development and maintenance of balance and perspective, rather than abstinence, as the goal of recovery.
