About My Clients
My patients are teenagers through adulthood (60s). Often they have tried EVERYTHING to help themselves feel better, but nothing has really helped. The clinical reasons people seek out my services often have to do with dieting, eating, weight, and body image concerns. I use an Intuitive Eating, non-diet approach in which becoming more embodied is the ultimate goal. I am also a mindfulness teacher and yoga teacher. Another area of specialty is working with Highly Sensitive People (HSPs).
My Background and Approach
I am a Yale trained, PhD psychologist. My treatment approaches are empirically based and individually tailored to each patient's particular presentation and goals. I work collaboratively with you and have been described as easy to talk with and down to earth. I appreciate and incorporate humor and sometimes puns and other nerdy things.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am HAES informed, anti diet, and Intuitive Eating trained. I believe ALL bodies are good bodies, and that pursuit of perfection we are sold only robs us of vital energy and freedom to live authentically.
