My approach

My style as a therapist has been described as warm, genuine, empathetic + insightful. I will hold space for all of your emotions and create an environment that is accepting and supportive where you can show up exactly as you are.

I am a person-centered therapist by heart, meaning that I believe you are the expert on you. Our therapy sessions will prioritize your own personal needs. I also primarily utilize techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). These are evidenced-based therapies for eating disorders, depression, and anxiety.

Some examples of interventions we may explore in therapy are how to use mindfulness strategies to help you practice awareness and acceptance of your thoughts and emotions in order to help you make decisions with clarity. We will work together to identify any unhelpful thought patterns that could be holding you back from living your life fully.

Areas of speciality

Eating Disorders & Body Image

I have experience working with adults, college-age students, and teenagers with eating disorders + those wanting to heal their relationship with food and their bodies. Eating disorders are often one of the most misunderstood mental health disorders, but recovery is possible. Part of our work will be discovering how your beliefs about food and your body have been holding you back from living fully and making active steps to work on changing these beliefs. We will work together to develop specific goals tailored to your current stage of change in recovery.

I also specialize in helping individuals who are navigating the stressors of early adulthood, a time in your life when you are trying to figure out the person you want to be. During this life stage, we are faced with many decisions that are exciting, but may also bring up anxiety that can feel consuming. It can be common to realize you aren't quite satisfied with your life, despite having more control over it. I also have experience working with high achievers and young professionals in high stress work environments such as teachers, nurses, & those in helping professions who are experiencing fatigue & stress in their workplace and want to find more fulfillment in their daily lives.
