Feeling emotionally lonely or disconnected despite “keeping it all together”? I specialize in working with adolescents and adults experiencing eating disorders, chronic depression, anxiety, and patterns of emotional overcontrol. Many of my clients are thoughtful, self-disciplined, and high-functioning on the outside, but feel isolated, perfectionistic, or out of touch with their emotions and bodies underneath. You might overthink, withdraw, or struggle to relax control. If therapy hasn’t felt like the right fit, you’re not alone.
I help clients shift patterns of overcontrol that show up as perfectionism, anxiety, disordered eating, and emotional inhibition. I integrate art therapy with RO DBT to build emotional openness and flexibility. I also offer HAES-aligned, anti-diet care supporting clients in challenging body and food-related distress.
If you often feel like you’re holding everything together while struggling underneath, you’re not alone. I offer a supportive, collaborative space to slow down and explore what’s going on beneath the surface. Together we can work toward more ease, flexibility, and self-understanding in a way that feels sustainable and real.
