Body-image concerns, eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties impact our ability to grasp the life we long for. Simple pleasures such as enjoying time with friends, celebrating special moments, going out for dinner, hanging out with peers, or feeling connected to our partner can be a daunting or impossible prospect. Stepping into therapy can feel just as daunting, but it can be the beginning of grasping the life you deserve. I have worked with adolescents, teens, and adults to strengthen recovery from their eating disorder, improve body image, heal trauma, and strengthen relationships.
My therapeutic interventions embrace multi-cultural awareness grounded in a trauma informed, person-centered, and strength-based approach utilizing evidence-based practices. Eating disorder care and healthy body-image development are approached through the framework of Health at Every Size, Intuitive Eating, and Anti-Diet approaches.
Counseling should be a welcoming space, free of judgment, for clients to begin or resume their path of healing and self-discovery, and I seek to create this space for all clients. I am committed to providing empathy, support, and hope as we work together to equip you in your quest for overall health.
