With over 20 years of professional experience treating depression, anxiety, relationship issues and struggles with food, weight, body image, and disordered eating, I believe all mental health symptoms are there for reasons.

In therapy we work with the conscious and unconscious material which surfaces in the psychotherapy room as well as bringing attention to thought and behavior patterns, developing insights, and strategizing solutions.

That approach includes physical, psychological, social and cultural domains. My greatest passion is to restore balance and bring relief.
