Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Weight and body concerns are often shaped by emotional, relational, and societal factors—not just behavior. I take a non-shaming, holistic approach that explores your relationship with food, body, and self. Together, we focus on sustainable changes, self-compassion, and overall well-being rather than quick fixes or rigid rules.

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.

Fort Wayne is Indiana's second-largest city and a hub for defense manufacturing, healthcare, and distribution logistics — an occupational mix that shapes a therapy culture in which shift work stress, workplace injury adjustment, and career identity are common themes. The city has a significant Burmese refugee community — one of the largest in the United States — creating important demand for therapists with cultural competence around refugee trauma, resettlement stress, and the challenges of navigating American systems. Parkview Health and Lutheran Health Network provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Fort Wayne's conservative faith community means spiritually integrated approaches are a prominent feature of the local therapy offering.
