Making the decision to start therapy can come with apprehension. I believe your best judgement guided you to search for the right therapist. I have a direct and compassionate style of working with children, adolescents, college students, and adults. I assist clients in reducing anxiety and depression in order to feel confident, achieve a healthier sense of self, and live in accordance to their values. I believe honoring one's intuition is the key to healing- whether that be through play therapy, creative art interventions, or talk therapy. I enjoy helping others explore their identity and to accept various parts of themselves.
I specialize in treating eating disorders and issues that occur at the same time, such as anxiety and depression. I have treated eating disorders for about a decade in inpatient and outpatient settings. I also use play therapy to assist children work through feelings related to anxiety, divorce, depression, trauma, eating issues, and behavioral issues.
I am a licensed psychologist certified in suicide prevention counseling, am a member of International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals, National Eating Disorder Association, Association for Play Therapy, and teach several college Psychology courses. Please call me to discuss questions or concerns about beginning therapy.
