I have extensive experience and passion working with and treating teenagers and adults with eating disorders, body dysmorphia, trauma, PTSD, identity issues, self-harming behaviors, and suicidal ideation. I balance kindness and warmth with honesty and challenge clients to grow and become unstuck in their lives. I meet you where you are with acceptance and compassion, whether you need comfort from fresh wounds or to be supported in breaking cycles and growth.
My passion is to come alongside people in a compassionate and accepting manner while cultivating a warm and safe space. I balance warmth and kindness with honesty and respect. I work collaboratively with clients on identifying and creating treatment goals that are effective yet simple enough to integrate into daily living. Collaboration is key: I am an expert on problems, and you are the expert in your life.
A first session with me is your opportunity to ask me questions, explain your struggles and pain in as much detail as you are comfortable with, and identify what is going well in your life and what you'd like to work on in therapy. My main goal in an initial session is to provide you with a safe and warm space while building a connection.
