The Body Positivity Card Deck and Beyond a Shadow of a Diet: The Comprehensive Guide to Treating Binge Eating Disorder, Compulsive Eating and Emotional Overeating were written by Judith Matz. The Diet Survivor’s Handbook: 60 Lessons in Eating, Acceptance and Self- Care was a favorite resource for therapists to use with their clients. She is the author of a children’s book that helps kids pursue their dreams at any size. Judith has a private practice in Skokie, Illinois, where she works with clients who want to get off the diet/binge rollercoaster and learn to feel home in their bodies. Judith has helped thousands of people to develop self-care skills that increase physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing without a focus on the pursuit of weight loss. She helps people end their preoccupation with food and weight through educational programs. At Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago, Judith trained in the treatment of eating disorders after receiving her masters degree from the University of Michigan. A popular speaker at national conferences, Judith is a frequent contributor to the Psychotherapy Networker magazine. She has her work described in the New York Times, LA Times, Allure, Fitness, Self, Shape, Today’s Dietitian, Diabetes Self-Management, NBC News Chicago, and Huffington Post Live.
