I pride myself on being positive, non-judgmental and solution focused and will help explore and educate to help anyone achieve and sustain recovery.

"Lotus Counseling works with survivors of trauma and those looking to recovery from Eating Disorders. We work with kids, teens, and adults. Kids + teens may be struggling behaviorally, have low self-esteem, disordered eating, self-injure, seem depressed and/or anxious. When this is the result of trauma or family conflict, we are able to help the family system learn how to support each other and provide a safe and validating environment. Adults may be struggling to form intimate relationships, parent effectively, have low self-esteem, disordered eating, function at work or at home, and struggle with their mood/thoughts/feelings. We help adults look at their childhood trauma, family system, and present day trauma/stressors to learn how to break these patterns that are impacting their daily life."

With my expertise in combining talk therapy with art therapy, I can guide you in opening new doors to mindfulness, self-expression and healing.
