Great to meet you!

HelIo! Thank you for being here. I am a trauma-informed and person-centered therapist who aims to understand, support, and empower you. I can teach you simple skills to manage emotions and distress, and I am trained in EMDR to help you get unstuck from past trauma. If you are seeking help for an eating disorder or body image distress, my experience working in treatment and my HAES-informed approach can offer you a safe and understanding space to heal and move forward. If you are a high-achiever with high anxiety, let's figure out a plan for you to stay sane.

My approach to therapy

I offer a warm, compassionate, and - when appropriate - humorous space for you to openly express yourself. Whether you want to talk about sex, that ex you still think about, or being overwhelmed with your current laundry list of things to do (or clothes to wash), I'm here for whatever it may be.

Let's get comfortable, let's get inquisitive, and let's not let judgment get in the way of your healing and growth.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to feel seen, heard, understood, and always respected. We will talk about how you got here, what is happening now, and where you want to go next.
