My experience as a former educator provides me with a unique and effective approach to helping my clients find their inner strength and existing wisdom. My passion is in eating disorder work and abolishing the diet culture that is so pervasive in our society. I am excited about teaching my clients practical skills for easing anxiety, relieving depressive symptoms, and finding a comfortable and healthy balance with life. I would love to help you recognize the beauty in your life that already exists as you work towards your goals and dreams.
In addition to supporting eating disorder recovery, I enjoy encouraging and elevating educators who are struggling in the field. I am compassionate and empathetic towards the unique difficulties of a teaching career and excited to support your whole self both within and outside of your job.
If you feel ready to begin your journey to a destination of balance and acceptance in your life, please reach out today and schedule a consultation or appointment. I can't wait to meet you!
