About My Clients
Have you noticed a tendency to hold yourself to unrealistic expectations? Does life feel overwhelmingly heavy at times? Have your old ways of coping become less than helpful? Then you're in the right place. Therapy is an opportunity for you to explore the inner workings of your mind in a safe place, with a safe person. I hope to help you view uncomfortable emotions with curiosity and collaborate with you on how to best process your experience.
My Background and Approach
My therapeutic approach is evidence based, and is designed to take what you already have within you and utilize it to help you. I place a great deal of value in our working relationship. We have to trust one another to cultivate changes. Therapy can be so challenging, which is why it's so important to know the person you are working with has your back. I believe that you already have what it takes to make changes and you just need the extra support in a non-judgmental enviornment. I have experience working in eating disorders, trauma, depression, and anxiety. You are unique and I value learning the way your experiences have shaped the person you are today. Let's work together and see how your life can better fit your goals and values.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have spent a great deal of my career working in the eating disorder space. Dismantling the way diet culture has shaped who we are as people means a lot to me as a clinician and human being. Watching the people in my life continue to try to adhere to an impossible standard has led me to feel passionate about this work. I want to empower people around me to recognize their innate worth as a human being. We are all deserving of compassion and kindness. While I am not working to dismantle the toxic belief that that love can only come from thinness, I am reading, enjoying nature, and watching horror movies. Spending time with me may require brief discussions of your favorite media.
