I believe that every day up until now has helped you to be the person you are today, and find it helpful to explore your family of origin dynamics to help in giving you some insights about your current functioning and relationships with others. While exploring the past, however, I find that my patients are coming in for symptom reduction, and not just insight. Which is why I am also very solution-focused. Through the combination of the two, my clients typically see a decrease in current symptoms, yet gain insight into preventing them in the future.
I am in this field for one purpose only--to help people heal. Having any type of psychological pain can feel scary or confusing because you can't touch it nor see it. Yet, it is very real to anyone experiencing it. Therapy is the first step in healing pain.
I have made it my life's goal to provide healing in a personalized, caring manner. I have years of experience in working with all ages, from children to older adults, and feel that this experience has allowed me to understand a wide range of disorders and emotional pain.

Groups
Am I Hungry? Mindful Eating For Binge Eating
If you struggle with binge eating, this group will help you to discover a whole new way to relate to food. This group will help you to stop obsessing about food, end mindless and emotional eating, stop you from fearing food and feeling guilty from eating foods that you love, help you to become the expert on what foods you want to eat, stop punishing yourself with exercise and dieting because of what you ate, and ultimately help you to feel like you are in charge of your eating, body and life.
