Our lived experiences shape the way in which we move throughout life and take in information moving forward. Sometimes we need a nonjudgemental space to explore these experiences in an affirming and validating atmosphere. I am passionate about supporting individuals struggling with anxiety disorders, body image concerns, disordered eating thoughts & behaviors, and life transitions.
I utilize DBT, CBT, ACT, and a trauma-informed lens to facilitate growth and foster a trusting therapeutic relationship. I work with an eclectic approach in order to tailor interventions to meet the holistic needs of the individual.
In supporting eating disorder related concerns, I practice with Intuitive Eating principles and am a Health at Every Size (HAES) aligned provider. If you are feeling stuck in an unsustainable pattern of thoughts or behaviors, allow me to meet you where you are at and support you through your unique journey.
