My Approach
I believe that full recovery from an eating disorder is possible and this philosophy is at the forefront of my treatment approach.
I am a person centered therapist, which means I see clients as a whole and not as the disorder or issue they wish to overcome. I believe that in order to heal one must feel seen and understood. Thus, I strive to meet clients with compassion exactly where they are at and provide them with tools they can learn to use themselves.
I tailor treatment to each individual client, however I particularly enjoy using CBT, DBT, and mindfulness skills.
I am health at every size-informed and feel that this approach is crucial to helping people to make peace with food and their bodies.
I am recovered from an eating disorder myself-and I am so grateful to be able to help others to find the same freedom that I did.
Helping people to recover from eating disorders is incredibly rewarding and I can't picture doing anything else.
*I am taking on a limited number of new therapy clients. If spots are full, I am happy to refer you to another clinician or put you on a wait-list.
