Are you navigating an eating disorder, perfectionism, or burnout? Exhausted, resentful, and unable to stop measuring your worth by discipline or control? You’ve always been the strong one, but food still feels confusing, rest unsafe, and asking for help harder than staying silent. You feel stuck between wanting to heal and silently unraveling - caught between collapse and overfunctioning. Maybe you don’t even know what rest feels like anymore. You’re ready for relief - to eat without spiraling, stop shaming and criticizing yourself constantly, and build a compassionate, trusting relationship with your body and life.
As an eating disorder and trauma specialist, I combine DBT, RO-DBT, MSC, and inclusive & HAES-aligned care to support deep, sustainable change. You don’t have to stay stuck in shame or fear of your own needs - and you don’t have to figure it out alone. Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation.
Clients tell me I'm sarcastic, informative, and direct to the point of blunt - which is usually exactly what they were looking for. I'm not here to validate you into staying stuck or dance around your trauma. I want to help you name it and finally deal with it. We'll get curious, build actual skills, and develop self-trust without judgment.

I help clients of all identities heal from eating disorders, trauma, and chronic burnout. My clients are often high-functioning but overwhelmed and stuck in shame or control cycles that no longer serve them or keep them disconnected. We can build new ways of coping, relating, and howing up for yourself - you don't have to keep doing it alone.
