Therapists in Near East, Columbus, OH

Whew! You made it! I know it took a lot for you to get here but I promise you, you have made a brave decision. Reaching out for help is not as easy as some people make it out to be, right?Not feeling quite like yourself, huh? I get it. No, really. Life can throw some harsh blows at you and can make you feel alone. You could be struggling with anxiety, depression, or grief and feel stuck. Or you could need direction for your career, school, or relationship. Whatever it is, allow me to walk along side you on your journey.

Hello and welcome! I understand you are tired and overwhelmed with life's demands. Your relationship is not what you expected and no longer feels satisfying or “meant to be.” You're struggling to be the “ideal” parent, or you’re just plain exhausted by all the pressures on you. If you let it, life will put you on an emotional roller coaster! Even if you’re not experiencing turmoil, how do you stay afloat? How do you protect your mind, your heart, or your child, or relationship? You need help to transform those painful emotions into ones that are healing and fulfilling. I accept clients in Ohio, Texas, and Michigan.

No matter what our body size, we can find ourselves out of balance with our eating, thoughts, and emotions when we are desperately trying to stay afloat with the demands of life, family, work, and other obligations. Instead of acknowledging what we do well, we may focus on our shortcomings and criticize our abilities and bodies. A vicious cycle of trying to control our weight and eating can lead to further criticism, guilt and disappoinment. At Eating & Behavioral Health Associates, I work with adults of all sizes and body types to find compassion and ease in their life by bringing balance into their thinking, eating and behaviors.
