I enjoy working with individuals who seek to live happier, healthier lives and recognize that change can only happen by trying something new. Each of us has the power to create better lives for ourselves simply by changing the way we relate to ourselves. Many people never learned as children how to cope with stress and negative emotion. But this is a skill that can be learned in adulthood and that can pave the way for greater happiness throughout our lives. The ultimate goal is to prioritize your well-being and care for yourself by noticing and responding to your thoughts and feelings with compassion and validation.
Specializing in the treatment of eating disorders, anxiety, and depression, I help people to understand the origins and purpose of their symptoms and to replace self-harming behaviors with healthy, effective coping strategies. I teach people to respond to themselves in kind, compassionate ways, whether responding to hunger, fullness, or any emotion.
People can experience relief from anxiety, depression, and self-harming behaviors by changing the way they respond to stressful and overwhelming situations. I teach strategies from a variety of modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Compassion-Focused Therapy, to help people create healthier, happier lives.

Therapy is an education about one's self. Therapy will help you understand yourself better and make sense of how you became the person that you are today. It will help you to develop healthier ways of coping that are consistent with your values and to live a happier life. I approach each case with fresh eyes and utilize treatment strategies that will be most useful to that particular patient.
