It often feels impossible to be a human in the world today. If you feel like your body will never be "good" enough or “healthy” enough & you've been led to believe "fixing" it is a matter of "will-power," you're not alone. If your life feels like a cycle of crisis, distress, and finding yourself in a deeper hole than the one you were in the day before, you're not alone. If you identify with one or both of the previous sentences, we will have plenty to talk about. Together we can figure out what’s most important to you, how to get it, and how to remove obstacles one at a time. Let’s start uncovering just how “enough” you already are.
Derived from extensive training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), my approach combines Health at Every Size (HAES) philosophies, trauma-informed practices, and humanistic frameworks. I also take a strengths-based perspective to utilize you, the expert on yourself, as an equal partner in the process.
If you’re ready to stop fighting your body and start embracing your true potential, let's work together. If you're tired of feeling tired and are looking for relief from your life as it currently is, whether that includes a component of body/food distress or not, I would love to support you on that journey.
