I treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, and obesity, and help people maximize performance at work, in sports, and in life.
I believe mental and physical health are inseparably linked. I can help with both! Mental health conditions sap energy, confidence, and motivation, making it harder to engage in good self-care, which can lead to decreased vitality, poor athletic performance, and physical health problems. Improving mental health will give you the energy and motivation to improve your physical health and fitness, and improved nutrition, fitness, stress management, and sleep leads to better mental health. By addressing both mental and physical health, I help you achieve optimal wellness.

Life can be very painful, and there are times in life when we need a safe place where we can just "be" and sort things out in a warm, accepting, and safe environment. To have someone to walk beside us and help us sort through life, learn new coping skills, and better handle the multitude of stresses and challenges that life presents. Even the strongest among us can feel lost, unsure, ambivalent, or unhappy at times. I am here for that purpose, to help you understand and manage whatever life throws at you, and how to do it successfully.

More and more people are having trouble knowing who they are or where they belong in life. What we were taught growing up or what we learn from society doesn't make sense or apply any longer. Because of this, we have difficulties from depression to questioning our own belief system. It may appear as confusion, anxiety, anger, or anything that disrupts our day-to-day life. When we feel this way it is a hurt or loss that is almost impossible to describe. My type of counseling presents people with an opportunity to understand why and how they think and feel the way they do and to go deeper than they could have possibly imagined.

Obesity Therapists
Can obesity be a cause of depression and anxiety?
Yes. It can be stressful and debilitating to carry excess weight. Many people make inaccurate assumptions about people who are overweight. This stigma may lead individuals to feel badly about themselves, decreasing their self-esteem, or leading to feelings of worthlessness. An association between obesity and depression is well-established.
When should an individual seek treatment for obesity?
When obesity, or the feelings it causes, creates a disruption in your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Examples include avoiding social situations due to anxiety, an inability to participate in family life as a result of health problems, or poor performance at work due to low self-esteem or other concerns.
Are there specific medications for weight loss?
There are several prescription drugs that can help with weight loss, including semaglutide and phentermine. These drugs reduce appetite and must be prescribed by a physician. Professionals will suggest lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, before turning to drugs, which have side effects and typically are prescribed only for a short duration. Many people regain weight after taking weight loss drugs if they have not made significant lifestyle changes.
What is body positivity?
Body positivity is a cultural movement that promotes the acceptance of bodies of all sizes and types, rather than those that conform to societal ideals of beauty. It places self-worth, self-acceptance, and an appreciation for one’s body as goals to achieve a happier, healthier attitude about oneself and others, focusing on who a person is rather than what they look like.
