You’re exhausted from trying to manage your health, feel out of control around food—especially when stressed—and can’t seem to stick with what you “should” be doing for your chronic illness management, you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve tried every diet and exercise plan but nothing feels sustainable, or it feels like your body is working against you. You want structure, support, and accountability; you want realistic habits you can actually maintain. Together, we’ll build a steady, doable path forward during your weight loss and health journey.
I help you find relief from shame and stability over extremes. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can be honest about setbacks and build steady, realistic progress. As an LCSW, PhD specializing in metabolic and health psychology, I partner with you to create meaningful goals for weight loss, diabetes, PCOS, and lasting behavior change.
I understand how exhausting it feels to keep starting over & how much courage it takes to reach out. In our work, you’ll find a compassionate, judgment-free space to rebuild trust in yourself & your body. If you’re ready to take that next small, sustainable step toward lasting change, I invite you to reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation call.
