As a therapist, I strive for sessions to feel collaborative, supportive and empowering. I often work with high functioning clients who tend to sacrifice their own wants and needs over other’s. Whether it’s having a difficult family member and being expected to 'keep the peace', a baby who brings new purpose in life, constant food noise, or any major life change – we can work together to establish healthy boundaries, regulate emotions, and feel empowered. I specialize in disordered eating, perinatal mental health (pregnancy & postpartum), anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, low self-esteem, and the emotional demands that can come with caring for others; while trying not to lose yourself in the process. Building a trusting rapport is one of the most important aspects of therapy. I take pride in holding space for clients to feel safe to speak their truth. At times humor is utilized to build rapport and validate clients in an authentic way. I provide a modern approach, tailor each session to individual needs, and integrate an array of therapeutic models - DBT, CBT, EMDR, Person-Centered, and Mindfulness. If you are looking for someone who is genuine and promotes true connection to achieve therapeutic goals, I would be happy to have a brief phone call to see if we are a good fit - free consultations are available. Thank you for being here, I look forward to speaking with you!
