About My Clients
Are you struggling with feeling stuck in your relationship with food, body image or size, people or your sense of self? Do you feel resistant to change even though you want to - most of the time? I get it. There can be so many changes that at times they can be overwhelming. You've tried to help yourself and that has been challenging, to say the least. I don't want you to have to suffer doing this alone. Evidence based tools blended with holistic practices can help. I'd like to help you.
My Background and Approach
I will provide you with tools I have been collecting and perfecting over my helping others just like you. I have dozens of them to work with. My goals for you is to have a least 3-5 different tools and techniques that you can carry with you at all times when there are triggers. I am solution focused and use various treatment modalities that I have extensive training in. If your issue is problem eating, exercise, or body image, I will help you make changes so you no longer self-sabotage. Through ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), we will release any past traumas which are holding you back. Even messages while growing up can be traumatic and may keep you from the freedom you seek from problem eating. Together we will address what is going on in your brain when you feel stuck or triggered and how to get in touch with your brain and find relief. You will gain resilience so you can experience lasting change and the freedom and peace you are holing for.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that we can come from a wounded and hurt place even with what we perceived as the best of family dynamics. I think the main reason we develop mental health issues is because they are unhealthy learned behaviors that we picked up along the way. They may have started out helping us cope or soothe, now they may hurt. I believe that we can make peace with the past in order to live happier in the present and future. Since I was young I was active in what we used to call "social action". As an adult I have always volunteered for various organizations doing service. As a professional, I have and will continue to support my colleagues, and new in-training therapists, who are actively helping discriminated populations.
