Do you struggle with thinking "will I ever feel at peace in my body", "I am worried what people think about me", "I just wish I fit in". Perhaps you struggle with confidence, perfectionism or people pleasing. It may also be that some of these feelings are resulting in troubles with eating, social isolation, skin picking/hair pulling or other patterns that are making your life feel smaller. If this sounds like you, I believe we may be a good fit. I believe therapy is not meant to fix you, but rather to help you feel safe being you. I specialize mainly in body image, anxiety/OCD, BFRBs, neurodivergence and eating disorders.
My approach balances space for reflective growth to identify root causes, while also identifying concrete skills and coping tools tailored to your unique goals and symptoms. I use an integrative approach to individualize treatment based on your needs. I draw from modalities such as CBT, CBT-E (for eating disorders), DBT, ERP, psychodynamic, and relational.
Social justice values are also crucial to my work and I encourage these conversations in session. My work as a therapist is rooted in body-positive values & neurodivergent affirming care. I believe your uniqueness is your superpower and look forward to helping you feel confident in embracing all parts of yourself!

Most commonly I work with clients struggling with anxiety, body image & eating disorders who typically identify as neurodivergent or are athletes.
