You’re tired of feeling like your body is the enemy. You struggle with food, body image, anxiety, or just not feeling at home in your life. Maybe you’re a teen or adult who’s masking emotions, navigating identity, or feeling overwhelmed by pressure. You want relief, clarity, and to feel more like you. You’re not looking for someone to “fix” you—you want support from someone who truly sees you and honors your story. Therapy is where you can begin again—where healing feels possible.
I offer talk therapy and art therapy for pre-teens, teens, and adults navigating eating disorders, body image concerns, anxiety, and life transitions. I’m a gender-affirming, LGBTQ+ affirming therapist who creates a safe space for exploring emotions, building coping skills, and reconnecting with yourself.
You don’t have to go through this alone. Therapy with me is collaborative, creative, and rooted in compassion. You deserve a space where all parts of you are welcome. If you’re ready to feel more at home in your body, your mind, and your life, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in that process.
