Eating Disorders
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.

Eating Disorders
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Eating disorders are often misunderstood as being about food—but they’re rarely just about food. For many people, they’re tied to control, coping, identity, and the pressure of living in a culture that constantly sends messages about what bodies should look like and how they should be managed. These patterns don’t develop in a vacuum. They’re shaped by family dynamics, cultural expectations, systemic bias, and experiences of being scrutinized, objectified, or disconnected from your body. What starts as a way to cope can become something that feels hard to interrupt, even when it’s no longer working.
At Nour Counseling, we approach eating disorders with depth, care, and without judgment. We work with you to understand the function these patterns have served, while also actively building more sustainable ways to cope and relate to your body. This might include normalizing eating patterns, reducing behaviors, addressing underlying thoughts and beliefs, and reconnecting with your body’s cues in a way that feels safe. We also name and unpack the cultural and systemic factors—like diet culture, weight stigma, and dominant body ideals—that reinforce these struggles, so you’re not internalizing something that was never yours to carry. This is collaborative work focused on helping you move toward a more stable, respectful, and supported relationship with food and your body.
