I have 30+ years experience using therapy and coaching to help people meet their goals and grow more confident in their ability to manage feelings, anxieties, relationships, weight, and health. I stand with my clients to develop lasting healthy habits including self-care and self-compassion. My style is highly interactive and focused on making sure you gain something valuable from every session we share. I listen compassionately and ask questions to help you understand yourself better. I will teach you strategies to use when feelings are strong or when you feel urges to something unhealthy or unhelpful. Please click on My Website!
My personal experiences being an overweight child and then overcoming ED symptoms strengthens my ability to help people with challenges involving eating anxiety, addiction, and perfectionism. We will always approach your experiences with non-judgmental acceptance and a strong commitment to achieve your goals. See my chapter in "The Book On Abundance" Amazon

Groups
DBT for Emotional Eating, Binge Eating, Purging
Research has confirmed my own clinical experience that Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is extremely effective in the treatment of Bulimia and Binge Eating problems. DBT is a treatment modality that teaches participants skills in the following areas: Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, and Emotion Regulation. A new skill is introduced each week of our DBT group so that pariticipants develop a vast toolbox of usable, concrete techniques to help them replace unhealthy and harmful behaviors with healthy ones. Participants learn to understand, manage and change their thoughts, emotions and behaviors, while simultaneously learning to accept their experiences and themselves.
