I can help you find calm in your mind and peace in your body

I help people who are worn out from trying to control and perfect everything, whether it’s school, work, relationships, or their bodies. In therapy with me, you’ll learn why your brain works the way it does. Instead of viewing your thoughts and behaviors as crazy, you’ll come to understand them as a way your brain copes with overwhelm and tries to keep you safe. You’ll learn valuable, long-lasting skills to regulate your mind and body. 

How things will shift for you

My clients say they have more days where they don't overthink and overanalyze. More days knowing how to manage the ruminating thoughts. My eating disorder clients report more days where they don't even think about their body. More days where the number on the scale does NOT dictate how their day will go, or how worthy they feel.  My clients say they have more moments of feeling free, where they can enjoy the present moment and the life happening right before them, NOT in their head. 

For over 20 years I’ve worked with people like you

My clients are lovely people who are good at so many things but feel at war with their minds and bodies. My clients are smart, high-achieving folks, with brains that are sensitive to anxiety, worry, perfectionism, eating issues, and body hatred. 

Therapy can help you forge a new path and feel mastery over your life. I am trained in a variety of therapy techniques that are known to improve anxiety and eating problems, but I let you guide me with what’s most comfortable for you, as I believe that you are your own expert. Together we might focus on anxious thoughts and present-moment behaviors with therapies like CBT. Or we might delve into the past or focus on body sensations with EMDR and IFS (Internal Family Systems). I am simply a guide who walks alongside as you try out new skills. For many anxiety and eating disorder clients, these “body-based” modalities are gentle ways to explore how their past impacts their present, and how the body can heal the mind. Ultimately, my clients can be more present in the moments that really matter.
