As a therapist with a lived experience, I specialize in addressing the complex intersection of eating disorders and religious trauma, as well as co-occurring challenges including depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, self-harm, and grief. I offer a brave, non-judgmental space where individuals can reclaim agency and implement strategies aligned with their strengths and goals
Grounded in an abolitionist and anti-carceral framework, I view therapy through a social justice lens, employing a primarily relational and psychodynamic approach. I help clients define what healing means on their terms, offering unwavering support as a comrade on their journey towards healing.
Whether you're new to therapy, returning after a hiatus, or seeking a fresh perspective, I'm here to explore if we're the right fit for your growth. Reach out, and let's embark on this transformative journey together.
