In addition to eating disorders, my practice focuses on grief counseling, depression, anxiety, assertiveness, relaxation, and PTSD for those in the military.
People often go into therapy feeling a great deal of shame, guilt and with secrets. It's important to me that the therapeutic environment I provide allow people to feel they are part of a non-judgmental, safe and warm environment. The goal of therapy is to help clients make behavioral changes and increase insight into the cause of those behaviors and the purpose they serve. I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, emotional/stress eating, body image, depression and anxiety. In addition, I run groups for individuals struggling with binge eating disorder.

These include: mood, anxiety and personality disorders, Issues surrounding grief and loss, and disorders of infancy and early childhood (ADHD, attachment disorders, acting-out behaviors, separation anxiety and sleep disorders).
I enjoy connecting with my clients and working collaboratively with them to create positive change. I strongly believe that no one is "too far gone", "too damaged", or "beyond help". All individuals have an innate ability to self-right, heal, change, grow and thrive, which starts from the inside out. Sometimes this is difficult to foster, but that does not mean it cannot be done. You have already begun your journey by visiting this page. In my practice, I utilize a caring, holistic, client-centered approach tailoring treatment specifically to each individual, as one size does not fit all.

I have a broad range of counseling experience and have worked with many personal, behavioral, and cultural issues over my 20+ year counseling career. I utilize a holistic approach to help you create positive change within your life. We all encounter transitions in our lifetime (e.g., divorce, relationship issues, illness, death of loved ones, occupational conflicts, separation from employment, end of military service, empty nests, etc.), but it is often the way we respond to these challenges more than the actual challenges themselves that impacts our overall physical and emotional health and wellbeing.

I help people who struggle with anxiety, issues with confidence, eating, acceptance and body image, grief, substance use, and depression.
Life is full of stressors, and these stressors probably got more complicated by surrounding crisis like the pandemic. YOU are not the only one; you are not alone in this. Help is always there for those who seek it. You could have anxiety or you could have gone through traumatic experience, and going through grief. You could be struggling with substance use, or have unmet goals of yours. I hope that you know the real value of counseling therapy. Although it has been recognized as a treatment for those who truly need it, it is also the road to learn how to cope with the points and situations we struggle with during our daily lives.

My skills have enabled me to include family dynamics on a more therapeutic level. Working with families I have been able to use a more client centered approach. I have spent the past five years working specifically with co-occurring disorders of mental health and substance use as it infiltrates our communities and families leaving tragedy and loss behind. Behavioral health affects millions of us each day and often leaves us overwhelmed and discouraged.
