Specialties: Eating Disorders, Grief, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma,

Introduction

My goals are to provide an empathetic, genuine, and constructive space for growth and healing. I strongly believe my clients are the experts in their own lives and can experience healing and personal growth through regaining self-efficacy in their own abilities. I have extensive experience and specialize in working with clients who struggle with eating disorders, depressive and anxiety disorders, chronic pain, grief, and dementia. I utilize evidence-based modalities of CBT, DBT, ACT, and motivational interviewing to assist clients in addressing negative thought patterns, gain acceptance towards themselves, and increase their tool box of helpful coping skills. I also work from a trauma-informed and Health at Every Size (HAES) perspective. I strive to empower my clients to reclaim ownership of their lives by helping them tap into their inner strengths. Whether you're in eating disorder recovery or facing other mental health challenges, I’m here to support your journey toward healing, resilience, and lasting change!
