I love working with clients to help them work through their anxiety roadblocks so they can get back to living their lives. Clients with OCD, social phobia, generalized anxiety, and more. Therapy requires some homework, but I promise it'll be worth it!

My goal is to support you with compassion, objective listening, supportive guidance, healing strategies, and hope. Many of us move through life carrying significant emotional burdens that hold us back from living a fuller life. Sometimes we feel stuck, hurt, overwhelmed, frustrated, angry, scared, devastated, confused, anxious, depressed, lonely, lost, etc. Sometimes we’re unaware of what we’re carrying and why, or the extent or ramifications of the weight. My role is to walk alongside you to bring those items into the light, and provide a safe space to examine and process them together.

These are very difficult times that we are currently in and the impact to mental health can be great. With life often feeling chaotic or lonely and the future seeming unsure, it is only natural to start feeling anxious or sad. Taking the step to reach out for help to address and work through such feelings, or any feelings you might currently be experiencing, is already a sign of great resiliency. My role, as a counselor, is to walk alongside my clients to help draw out and direct all that inherent strength and resourcefulness.

Is your mind filled with self-judgment and criticism about what you see in the mirror? Do you avoid social gatherings and events because of the way you look? Are you postponing goals and passions because you want to "first" get your weight or appearance under control? I am confident there is another way to embrace life without the constant battle, energy, and emotions wasted on what you "should" be in comparison to others. I hope to work with you to move towards a more compassionate, and self-trusting version of yourself.

Obesity Therapists
Can obesity be a cause of depression and anxiety?
Yes. It can be stressful and debilitating to carry excess weight. Many people make inaccurate assumptions about people who are overweight. This stigma may lead individuals to feel badly about themselves, decreasing their self-esteem, or leading to feelings of worthlessness. An association between obesity and depression is well-established.
When should an individual seek treatment for obesity?
When obesity, or the feelings it causes, creates a disruption in your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Examples include avoiding social situations due to anxiety, an inability to participate in family life as a result of health problems, or poor performance at work due to low self-esteem or other concerns.
Are there specific medications for weight loss?
There are several prescription drugs that can help with weight loss, including semaglutide and phentermine. These drugs reduce appetite and must be prescribed by a physician. Professionals will suggest lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, before turning to drugs, which have side effects and typically are prescribed only for a short duration. Many people regain weight after taking weight loss drugs if they have not made significant lifestyle changes.
What is body positivity?
Body positivity is a cultural movement that promotes the acceptance of bodies of all sizes and types, rather than those that conform to societal ideals of beauty. It places self-worth, self-acceptance, and an appreciation for one’s body as goals to achieve a happier, healthier attitude about oneself and others, focusing on who a person is rather than what they look like.
