Welcome. I'm here to provide a safe, healing space for those suffering from low self-esteem, interpersonal difficulties, body image issues, disordered eating, and so much more. This may present as feeling out of place, struggling with shame and difficulty accepting yourself. You might also be looking for a way to communicate and connect more with other people. Maybe you're struggling with the body you're living in or feeling worried about your relationship with food. You're not alone and I'm here for you.
I'm a HAES and neurodivergent-affirming provider with experience working with anxiety, eating disorders, Borderline Personality Disorder, ADHD, and Autism. It's important to me to create a safe space for those who often feel judged or alone. We can build a deeper understanding of your emotional needs so that we can find more effective ways of meeting them.
You are already doing the hardest part by taking this first step on your healing journey. I would love to provide a truly judgment-free space where we can take the next step of this journey together. You deserve help, and you deserve safety, happiness, and hope. Let's figure out how to find that together.

We can work together to find strategies that work best for you. I believe that everyone is different and therapy should reflect that. It can be discouraging to receive the same treatment or advice over and over with no results. We'll look at what hasn't worked just as much as what has worked so we can find what's right for you.
