Great to meet you!

You can nourish both your body and soul while embracing and enjoying life. I am embrace weight inclusivity and reject the diet culture. I specialize in therapy for individuals struggling with eating disorders, chronic dieting, the harmful effects of weight stigma, and body image issues. I welcome people of diverse shapes, sizes, and identities, fostering a safe space for healing from the destructive cycle of shame and self-hatred.

My approach to therapy

At the core of my approach to therapy is a belief that clients can find confidence, fulfillment, understanding, and values in their life. I know your circumstances are unique, so I help you gain introspection by tailoring therapy to you, and always with an end goal in mind.

What you can expect from me

In sessions with me, we will explore the relational dynamics that are causing eating disorders, disordered eating, shame, self-hatred, and body image issues. We will work on boundaries and values that will be most effective for you. Through our work together, you will be equipped with the skills and confidence you need to nourish your body and soul and enjoy life.
