Great to meet you!

I specialize in working with individuals struggling with eating disorders, body image concerns, anxiety, and life transitions. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, creating a safe space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop healthier coping strategies, and work toward greater self-acceptance, confidence, and balance in your life.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and supportive. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and EMDR, to help you better understand yourself, recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools to navigate life's challenges. Together, we'll work toward healing, greater self-compassion, and meaningful, lasting change.

What you can expect from me

I’m passionate about creating a welcoming, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and validated. I believe therapy is a place to explore challenges without judgment, build confidence, and feel empowered to make meaningful, lasting changes in your life.
