About
It is crucial to me to build a trusting relationship with my patients, providing a safe environment where patients feel comfortable exploring their beliefs, thoughts and feelings and how this can influence behaviors.
I am the co-founder of the Eating Disorder Support Network and have worked at all levels of care, including, inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, and outpatient. I have facilitated group therapy, have worked with families, couples, and individuals. I will collaborate & work as part of a team with the patient, support people, & other providers.
I strive to work with patients & families to meet therapeutic goals. I use a combination of treatment interventions including a psychodynamic approach, as well as skill-building using both cognitive & dialectical behavioral therapies. My goal is to empower patients by incorporating these skills into their daily lives to resolve interpersonal conflict.
