Specializing in eating disorders, anxiety, and trauma, I believe that everyone already has within them the resources to heal, grow, and thrive.

My clients often come to therapy grappling with uncertainty, high stress, or loneliness in their lives. Sometimes they are feeling intense emotions, or behaving in ways that are confusing and frustrating for them. They may be feeling disconnected from other people, or feeling overly worried about how others perceive them. They are seeking more connection, peace and balance in their day-to-day. I use evidence-based interventions – primarily a therapy called Internal Family Systems (IFS) – to help people tap into their innate wisdom. With my guidance, clients heal themselves. Whether you are looking to change confusing emotions & behaviors, connect back to yourself & others, or move forward from a situation that has shaken your core, I offer tools for life-changing growth. Reach out via email or phone to take the first step, or schedule a free 15 minute collaborative call through my website. I look forward to working with you!
