Therapist Overview
Life can throw us some curve balls, and sometimes, when trying to deal with these curve balls, we struggle to find ways to cope. For some, coping through food and/or substance use is one of the ways that people try to cope through life challenges. For others it can be isolating, self-harming, or numbing yourself to feelings all around. These coping mechanisms only work for so long, until they don’t work anymore, and end up hurting you. Sometimes these maladaptive coping skills only impact you, but often times, others close to you are hurting as well… your spouse, significant other, parents, siblings, and friends. I have a strong background in treating those suffering from eating disorders, substance use, body image issues, and all that can come along with these disorders, such as anxiety, PTSD, and depression. I am well trained in providing services to couples and families as well, because I know that when one person suffers, the whole unit can suffer as well. You’re not alone in you
