Does emotional eating interfere with your life? Do you know about eating well, but just can't seem to stay on track? Have you tried every diet and dread the next Monday re-start? It's hard to enjoy life when you're consumed with criticism (yours & others) and it's hard to know what will make things better. Conscious Eating is a great tool to help you stop emotional eating and focus your goals with less stress. Life can get better. You can change your relationships with yourself, your body and others. You can enjoy a peaceful life.

I am more interested in what you are experiencing than anything I could tell you about myself. Generally people come because they have reached some sort of personal impasse or difficulty and feel the need for an outside perspective or help. My job is to provide that perspective.

Has the pandemic greatly impacted your world? Feeling stuck? Experiencing a lack of motivation? Are you struggling with pain from a chronic health issue or pain from daily life frustration? Are you always anxious, angry or depressed? Feel distant from your true self? Therapy can help you to break through the pain to be where you want to be. Warm, supportive, non-judgmental therapeutic exploration can help you to reconnect with or discover the person outside the pain, who is not just a medical diagnosis, an adult child of an alcoholic, your profession, an angry/depressed/anxious person but the real you and your full potential.
