If you’ve spent years battling your relationship with food, your body, anxiety or food noise that never seems to quiet down, you’re not alone. You may feel trapped in cycles of shame, perfectionism, or self-doubt, knowing exactly what you should do, yet feeling stuck doing the opposite. You want to feel confident in your body, at peace with food, and grounded in who you are.
As a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist trained in EMDR, I help adults heal from eating disorders, body image struggles, trauma, and anxiety through a collaborative, trauma-informed approach. Together, we’ll rebuild self-trust, calm your nervous system, and move from self-criticism toward confidence and compassion.
I offer virtual therapy for clients in New York, New Jersey, South Carolina, and Florida. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or uncertain about where to begin, that’s okay - we’ll start wherever you are. You’re welcome to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see how we might work together. Healing begins with connection, and you don’t have to do this alone.
