I help people sort through parts of life that feel 'stuck' and work to identify skills to move forward. In particular, my work has focused on helping people improve their relationships with food, their bodies, and the culture that has dictated the most harmful elements of this relationship. I have training in both psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral modalities, and my practice leans into values-driven Acceptance and Commitment therapy. I welcome clients from all identities, and make space to address the impact of explicit and internalized biases.
If we were to work together, we would spend some time identifying what messages you are listening to from yourself, question which of those messages align with the life you want to live, and how to make peace with the others.
We may spend some time on the origins of these negative messages, and will discuss the process of moving forward with a balance of acceptance and change. The client is the expert in their experience, and I offer myself in the role of consultant, facilitator, coach, and co-conspirator.
