About My Clients

I want to help all clients achieve unconditional self-acceptance, liberation from expectations, and comfort with setting boundaries. My primary focus areas are: eating disorders, body image struggles, anxiety, sexual assault/abuse survivorship, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, sexual shame, purity culture recovery, extreme self-criticism, attachment wounds, developmental trauma, late diagnosis ADHD/Autism, perfectionism, overly controlling/controlled behavior, and chronic people-pleasing.

My Background and Approach

No matter the specific issue that brings a client to therapy, at the core of what I do is helping people become embodied. In working with me, you’ll learn how to get out of your head and truly live in your body, appreciate and respect your body as an important source of wisdom and intuition, feel secure and grounded in who you are, and live a life that aligns with your values and what you stand for—without guilt or shame. Our bodies remember things that our conscious minds have forgotten. Most of us learn to disconnect from our bodies at a young age for various reasons, trusting outside sources instead of our own felt sense and intuition about what we like, believe, and feel. Real and true healing and wellness come when we are able to reopen the conversation with our bodies, repair that ruptured relationship, and integrate into one gracefully embodied self. You and I will use Somatic Experiencing in our work together in order to accomplish this.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

In therapy, I believe everything is relevant. There is no such thing as "too much information;" tell me everything and we can connect the dots together. I believe in a true holistic and multidisciplinary approach and I love to collaborate with physicians, PTs, dietitians, and body workers to help my clients heal their whole selves. I believe that our bodies carry our traumas, so we have to include the body in the therapeutic healing process to truly, deeply heal. You deserve to reconnect with yourself. You are and have always been the expert on yourself and who you are.
