Introduction

Through my work as an in-home therapist, outpatient therapist, and eating disorder therapist, I have found that the ideal therapy is one that meets the needs of each individual in a creative and compassionate way. The many parts that make up an individual are beautiful, unique, and complex. I take the training I have in different treatment modalities and tailor my approach to match the unique individual I am grateful to serve.
