About
I am specially trained and certified to treat eating disorders, and welcome any person who struggles with issues related to eating, weight or body image. I have been treating eating disorder clients and their families for many years, I have experienced personal recovery myself, and have worked in residential eating disorder and mental health outpatient facilities. I have the knowledge and training to treat underlying issues that fuel eating disorders and other mental health issues, including but not limited to, addiction, anxiety, depression, PTSD, abuse, trauma and relationship conflict.
My training in the treatment and prevention of eating disorders led me to recognize that problematic behaviors or “coping strategies” were often symptoms of underlying issues needing to be identified, understood, and changed. I help clients help themselves to become more curious about the issues that keep them stuck, while working to restore balance.
I am passionate about my practice and the work that I do with my wonderful clients to treat and eliminate eating and other mental health disorders. If you have any questions, please feel free to call or email knowing there is no pressure to proceed. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
