I understand how emotional eating can take over—it was part of my own journey too. Training as a therapist helped me not only overcome these struggles, but also learn how to support others in finding freedom from them. I believe food isn’t the problem—it’s often a way of coping with deeper feelings. Together, we can explore the root causes in a safe and supportive space. I work integratively, using CBT, Person-Centred, and Psychodynamic approaches, adapting to your unique needs. Whether you want practical tools to manage urges or space to explore what’s driving them, we’ll move at your pace. You don’t have to go through this alone
I can help you by providing tailored therapy that addresses emotional eating through a range of proven approaches. My specialty lies in overall emotional well-being and developing a healthier relationship with food.
I understand how challenging emotional eating can be, and I want you to know you're not alone. With a compassionate, supportive approach, I’m here to help you explore your feelings and develop healthier coping strategies. If you're ready to take the first step towards change and find peace with food, I invite you to reach out. We've got this!

I work with clients who are struggling with emotional eating including binge eating disorder. In the a world where weight loss jabs are taking off, i believe in getting to the root cause of the issue and tackling the issue head on. I myself have struggled with my weight most of my life, so I fully understand how this feels and the impact it has on our daily life. I am here to help!

Depending on my clients needs I can use techniques from different approaches. Generally in the first few sessions i will focus more on Person-Centred allowing the client to lead the conversation and get the bigger picture, once established I may use techniques from other approaches like CBT or Psychodynamic. I will only use techniques my clients feel comfortable with in every session.
