I specialize in supporting teens and adults working to heal from eating disorders, body image concerns, OCD, or perfectionism. I especially enjoy helping athletes, dancers, and other high achievers reduce anxiety, build resilience, and restore a healthy relationship with food, their bodies, and performance. I believe that all humans deserve to feel connected to their values and their community, and I strive to help my clients overcome patterns of behavior that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected. I also love working with parents looking for support as they help their children navigate mental health challenges.
I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and relational psychotherapy, along with other modalities like ERP, DBT, and CBT, to help clients experiment with new ways of being that bring them closer to their values. I support clients using openness, empathy, and curiosity as they practice leaning into uncertainty and loosening rigid patterns.
Reaching out for therapy is a courageous step, and I want to validate the vulnerability it takes to begin this process. Healing starts with allowing yourself to be supported and seen, and I would be grateful to walk alongside you as you explore new possibilities for growth, connection, and self-compassion.
