Is your mind constantly telling you that you're not enough? Comparing you to others? Are you caught in a cycle of behaviours that leave you feeling ashamed, defeated, or completely exhausted? Perhaps these patterns are negatively affecting your relationship with food or body-image, your focus at school/work, or are pulling you away from being present with the people or things that matter most to you. If you can relate to these experiences, I can help. With over 24 years of experience working with teens, adults and caregivers, I offer a warm and collaborative space that supports learning, change, and healing - at your own pace.
I support individuals and families affected by a variety of mental health concerns and life stressors, with specialization in eating disorders, anxiety, and mood concerns. Together we'll work towards understanding and developing more effective responses to difficult thoughts and emotions, so that you can participate more fully in the life you want to live.
If you're looking for support to find more peace and balance in your life, I'd love to connect. Whether you're seeking help with disordered eating, anxiety, mood concerns, or simply need a compassionate space to reflect, call or email me to book a free 20 minute consultation, or visit my website by clicking the button on this page.
