Are you feeling stuck in a cycle of anxiety, obsessive thoughts about food, negative body image, or dissatisfaction with life? For many college students, the pressures can make it hard to find peace, especially when constant comparison and self-criticism are in the mix. I’m here to help you uncover the reasons behind these struggles and work toward breaking free from these patterns. I specialize in helping young adults with eating disorders, disordered eating, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My approach blends different therapies to meet your needs, whether that’s addressing emotions, old beliefs that are keeping you stuck, or building coping skills. Together, we’ll work to heal your relationship with food, your body, and yourself. If you’re ready to move past these challenges and create more self-compassion and peace in your life, I’d love to support you on this journey. Reach out to schedule an intro call today!

IS-ART
ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) helps clients quickly process and resolve painful memories and trauma. Through guided eye movements, it allows individuals to change how distressing images are stored in the brain, reducing the emotional impact. This approach can offer relief from anxiety, trauma, and stress without needing to relive the painful experience in detail.
