So many of us have been through traumatic experiences that have left us feeling hopeless, overwhelmed, and falling into unhealthy patterns. We experience an inner critical voice that tells us we are not good enough, ugly, or worthless. I love to provide a safe and comforting space for clients to process their difficult life experiences, break through cycles of shame, and begin recovery from addictive behaviors, including with eating and embodiment issues. Together, we focus on healing, reclaiming health, practicing intuitive self-care, celebrating your authentic self and beauty, and cultivating self-love and self-compassion.

My clinical practice includes Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills, sand tray, parts work, compassion focus, and somatic EMDR. I have a long-term history of substance use counseling. I also utilize the Be Body Positive model to provide ethical care in treating eating and embodiment problems.

If you struggle with depression, anxiety, traumatic experiences, addictive behavior, or difficult emotions, please feel free to reach out for a consultation. I value body positivity, welcoming people of all body sizes, cultures, and gender expressions. Let’s begin your therapy journey, calming your inner critical voice, and embracing hope.
