Reducing or eliminating emotional eating is my therapeutic focus. At this time I am only able to accept clients interested in our "Why Can't I Stop Eating?" program. If you are eating secretly, eating past fullness or when not hungry, feeling shame after eating or using food to deal with emotions, consider attending the "Why Can't I Stop Eating?" program which includes a weekly 90 minute Skills (classroom-type) group and weekly individual therapy. Persons participating in bariatric programs or taking GLP-1's are also welcome in the Why Can't I Stop Eating? group.
I believe that we all do the best we can with the skills that we have. Sometimes, however, those skills only get us so far, and we need new ones. I teach those new skills in both an educational format and through the therapeutic relationship. I pay special attention to how clients view their lives in order to provide individualized and effective treatment.
I enjoy working with people of all backgrounds, cultures and orientations and consider it an honor to be my clients’ therapist. I am also a licensed supervisor and enjoy providing clinical supervision to clinicians new in the field.
