I cannot think of a time that I did not want to help people. I have also been easily approachable and have always assisted with friends and family challenges. During my 13 plus years in mental health I have studied and trained to be the best I can be at my profession. When I help others be empowered and learn techniques to fight the hard trials of life, it brightens my spirit and reminds me each and every time why I do what I do. So, let me assist you in living your best life!

As an eating disorder clinician, I work with people in all stages of their recovery and strive to meet my clients where they are in their journeys. I am passionate about helping individuals who are struggling to heal their relationship with food and their bodies. In taking a whole-person approach by using behavioral methods of treatment, I work to uncover any underlying causes for the struggles my clients may be going through. I work with both adolescents and adults who are suffering from eating disorders, anxiety, body dysmorphia, low self-esteem, OCD, and mood disorders.

I know how hard it is to seek help when you’re struggling. I get it because I've been there too. You deserve to live fully. You deserve better than scheduling problems, long drives, big bills, and weak outcomes. Maybe you’re afraid it will take years of counseling just to start feeling better. I believe therapy should be a lot more than learning how to cope or survive something. It should help you achieve your goals, thrive in relationships, and live more fully.

It can be scary to be honest with oneself, let alone with others. Yet, most of us still desire to be seen, loved, and accepted. I work with people curious about how their childhood, cultural background(s), identities, and trauma influence how they relate to themselves, family, lovers, friends, and authority figures. My work centers on anti-racism and the lived experiences of folks who are Queer, Transgender, Polyamourous, or Kinky. I enjoy working with people outside of these identities as well. Modalities I utilize are Relationship Analysis, EMDR, Parts Work, Psychodynamic Techniques, and Sex Therapy.

I know personally how hard it can be to experience sexual/physical/emotional trauma/addiction/depression/grief/financial/relational ruin/overwhelming anxiety. Hoping to get through a day with the jaw clenching/palm sweating/handshakes/thoughts racing/heart pounding/doubting every idea/thought/emotion, asking will this be forever? Sometimes, you experience paralyzing nightmares or dreams that you are moving in slow motion and feel so alone and isolated when in a crowded room. Moreover, the constant dread (or the invisible weighted depression blanket). I get it; I've lived it and worked with many others who have.

You’ve known easier times, or you know they’re out there and you’re looking for them. You're taking action to feel better in the face of challenge and that’s a big deal. You deserve the support of someone familiar with challenging times. The empathy and proactive engagement you'll come to expect in your work with me, come from a place of understanding the urgency for resolution that accompanies pain. You have the capacity to learn and grow in the ways necessary to find relief, peace of mind, connection with others, and a sense of competence in the activities that are important to you.

Do you feel stuck, lost or overwhelmed? Perhaps you feel like you have to invest so much energy but still feel unfulfilled and empty. Do you struggle with intense worry, self doubt or shame? You might not know where these feelings come from, what you are needing or perhaps, you are in a painful situation, relationship or job. You might struggle with chronic illness and have the added stress of navigating your physical health when you already feel drained. Perhaps you are deeply impacted by past wounds or trauma. It is possible to feel better and it's possible to have healthy relationships both with yourself and others.

I have always wanted to support others in meeting their full potential. To me this means supporting others in seeing themselves as whole and beautifully flawed. When we can acknowledge and love all parts of ourselves we are so much closer to that potential. I often hear from clients that they know what they should do to heal, but find themselves stuck in old patterns. With my training in whole body healing such as EMDR and Brainspotting, we can learn new ways of being. I also provide animal assisted therapy with my co- therapist Koda Bear.
