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.

Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Eating disorders are among the most complex and serious mental health conditions, and they deserve specialized, compassionate care. I work with adolescents, young adults, and their families navigating anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and related concerns. My approach is evidence-based and weight-inclusive, with a focus on healing the relationship with food and body rather than just managing symptoms. I have a specialty area in athletes and am well-aware of aesthetic and performance concerns among athletes and performing artists. I also offer Family-Based Treatment (FBT) for parents supporting a teen in recovery. I believe full recovery is possible, and have seen it in many of my clients over the past 10+ years!

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
It is widely accepted that weight loss, eating disorders, and anxiety are all issues that hypnosis is successful at dealing with. All have their root in emotional issues and the habitual way people see themselves and their lives. Research shows that most people who are grossly overweight have suffered some trauma in their lives leading them to holding on to excess weight and no amount of dieting will permanently change that without resolving those past traumas and changing habits and relationship with food. I see many such clients in my practice and we are able to find them healing and moving on to healthier lifestyle.

Louisville's therapy community is shaped by the city's dual identity as a major healthcare hub — anchored by the University of Louisville Health system, Norton Healthcare, and Baptist Health — and a culturally rich city with deep roots in bourbon, thoroughbred racing, and Southern Midwestern community values. The Muhammad Ali Center and the city's civil rights heritage sustain meaningful conversations about racial identity, community resilience, and systemic inequity in clinical work. The University of Louisville's department of psychological and brain sciences provides important training resources for the local therapy community. Louisville's positioning at the intersection of Appalachian influence, Southern tradition, and Midwestern pragmatism shapes a therapy culture where direct, accessible, and often spiritually informed approaches find the broadest acceptance.
