Introduction

Hi, I’m Mari! I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. My practice utilizes a blend of evidence-based interventions and approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I approach each session from a Health At Every Size® (HAES®) and Intuitive Eating lens and strive to create a safe space for individuals of all sizes, ages, races, gender identities, and abilities. I work in collaboration with each of my clients as we create a tailored plan for therapy that aligns with their treatment goals. I also find value in what my lived experience with eating disorders can bring to the therapeutic relationship. This drives my fiery passion for the work I do with my clients every day, as I truly know that recovery is achievable, beautiful, and deserved by all! I’m so excited and honored to walk alongside you in your journey to heal and build your life worth living.
