You feel stuck in patterns you don’t understand—obsessing over food, battling constant shame, pushing people away, or numbing out just to get through the day. Maybe it’s trauma. Maybe it’s depression. Maybe you’ve lived with an eating disorder for years. Whatever it is, you’re exhausted, and you want it to stop. I help people untangle the pain, make sense of what’s happening underneath, and start healing—not by fixing you, but by helping you reconnect with who you really are. You are more than your diagnosis.
My specialties include treatment for eating disorders, trauma recovery, depression, anxiety, addiction, pornography use, and relationship and family conflict. I use evidence-based therapy tailored to your needs, helping you gain insight, improve coping skills, and rebuild healthy emotional connection.
You don’t have to have it all figured out—that’s kind of the point of therapy. If you’re tired of white-knuckling your way through life, I’m here to help you sort through the chaos with compassion, connection, and maybe a bit of dry humor. Healing happens in connection. Ready to find out how? Booking online is easy.

With over 25 years of experience, I help clients facing eating disorders, depression, and trauma feel safe, understood, and supported. I use proven methods -not trends- to help you heal at the root, not just manage symptoms. I won't waste your time, and I won't give up on you.

I believe therapy should be tailored to your unique needs. There's no one-size-fits-all approach. We'll collaborate to develop a plan that's realistic and effective, but your commitment to the process is crucial. Whether it's traditional talk therapy, CBT, or other techniques, we'll find what works best for you. What is most important is that it works!
