Therapist Overview
Do you feel that aspects of your life are out of control and unmanageable? Maybe you are noticing a pattern of avoiding people or places you once loved, or a sudden change in appetite, energy, or drive. Or maybe you know something is “off” and can’t quite put your finger on what is missing. The first step to change and healing is sometimes an overwhelming task. It takes a lot of courage to say, “it’s time to do something differently”. As a former therapist and clinical manager at Eating Recovery Center, I specialize in treating eating disorders, anxiety, and depression in teens and adults. My therapeutic approach draws from multiple evidence-based theories such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Each individual brings strength and resilience to their therapeutic work and I work collaboratively with my clients in addressing change with a supportive, empathic, and non-judgmental approach. It would be an enormous privilege to walk through your therapeutic journey with you.
