Although I have specialized in the full spectrum of eating disorders for over 30 years, my passion is working with emotional eating/BED and weight-loss coaching. I have developed a program called "the glow approach" which will help you develop a healthy relationship with food, which means 1) putting food back in its place as nourishment for your body and learning which foods "work for you" for health and weight-loss; and 2) identifying what role(s) food plays in your life: a coping mechanism to manage feelings, avoid issues, fill a void, and/or self-medicate underlying mental-health conditions such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD.

As a therapy provider, I offer individual therapy sessions for children, adolescents, teens, and young adults. I pride myself on creating a safe, caring, and confidential environment for my clients. I enjoy working with individuals who are ready and motivated for change, though also recognize what it means to be “motivated” can look different for everyone. I work collaboratively with individuals and families to develop evidence based treatment plans to address self-identified goals, often which involve symptom reduction and increased quality of life.
