Having an eating disorder can make you feel trapped in a world where thoughts about food and your body become your whole life. You don’t have to stay trapped.

I have over 10 years of experience providing specialized therapy to people with eating disorders and understand the complex nuances of what you are facing. I know how to move you towards recovery so that you don’t have to continue to suffer.

As a professor at two colleges, I teach others to become therapists.
