Meet Our Psychologists
Betsy Ryland, Ph.D
I want to help you learn the life skills you need to learn for life-long health and weight maintenance.
I have been a therapist and educator for over 25 years, focusing on women’s issues, eating disorders, communication, and strategies for coping with stress. I enjoy seeing motivation and excitement build as you tap into your own energy for creating a healthy life. I see managing your personal stress as essential to staying healthy.
In working with weight-loss surgery patients, I bring a heart-felt sensitivity to obesity issues because of my own struggles with weight management. It is gratifying to use my professional skills and personal experiences to honor the preciousness of each individual who is challenged by weight management. I have conducted psychological evaluations and workshops for over 500 bariatric surgery clients.
Greg Cox, Ph.D
From the time of my Ph.D. training at University of Louisville, my career has been consistently involved with medically related psychology. I have worked with patients suffering neurological difficulties (strokes, head injuries, and spinal cord injuries), chronic pain and a variety of co-occurring medical disorders. I have extensive experience in psychological assessment, diagnosis, treatment, training, and presentation. My work is now focused on Bariatric Psychology, providing you with psychological support to increase your success with weight-loss surgery.
