Are you feeling disconnected from your body and using food or movement as a way to gain control, numb the pain, or create a sense of safety? Maybe these patterns, while once protective, are now creating barriers to the life you truly want to live. If this sounds like you and you're ready to make a change, I'd love to work with you. I am a Resident in Counseling at Rock Recovery. My clients often feel stuck — longing for recovery but uncertain of where to start. I offer a space for individuals to explore both their relationship with food and their deeper emotional experiences without judgment, in order to experience true healing.
My work is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, providing concrete tools to help clients navigate emotions, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and build a life aligned with their values. I use psychodynamic principles to help clients understand their past and how it shapes their present.
If you’re ready to take the next step—or even if you’re just curious about what that might look like—I invite you to reach out. Together, we can create a space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered to build a life that is no longer dictated by fear or self-doubt. Change takes time, but you don’t have to do it perfectly—you just have to begin.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling with an eating disorder and who carry the weight of past traumas or other comorbid conditions. Their goals go beyond symptom management; they want to feel safe in their body, trust themselves, and create a life that feels meaningful. They seek not just recovery, but the ability to fully engage in relationships, passions, and life experiences.
