Finding peace with your body and your relationship with food is possible. I’m here to support you in feeling more confident and comfortable in your own skin. My work is rooted in a non-diet, Health at Every Size approach, recognizing that health is not one-size-fits-all. Messages from society can be limiting—and often harmful—to overall well-being. That’s why I take an individualized approach with each client, tailoring our work together to best support your unique needs.
I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT) with my clients. I also work alongside eating disorder informed dieticians therefore, I am familiar with the components of intuitive eating.
I would love to meet you and be a part of your self love journey.
