About My Clients
You may have found me because you and your family are navigating the highs and lows of growing your family: This may include infertility, miscarriage, child loss, and profound emotions related to the changes in your life. Additionally, specialize in treating eating disorders and pre-occupation with food, body, and movement. I am passionate about serving LGBTQIA individuals (as a lesbian). I've treated clients with questions and managing issues related to their sexuality and gender.
My Background and Approach
My hope for every client I work with is that they can live a life worth living. Society prioritizes productivity over community, leaving people and parents feeling lonely, isolated, guilty, and as though they are not enough. I aim to provide a space for healing, connection, vulnerability, empathy, and NURTURE. It is my priority to push back against the culture of productivity and perfectionism and encourage us to slow down, connect, feel, and allow for rest. I believe that our bodies are wise, yet to survive we have cut off the connection to our body and have learned to live from the neck up. A big part of my practice is helping clients relearn to connect with their bodies, listen, and respond to the messages their body is sending. Our relationship and you feeling safe with me is my main priority. I use elements of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I am a Health at Every Size Clinician.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have been loving, adventuring, and living life with my wife since 2017. I have three incredible kids who came into my life through fertility treatments and with birth trauma. I am a survivor of both postpartum anxiety and depression. I am here to share the good news that you will not feel this way forever – there is life after the postpartum period. As someone who is in recovery from an eating disorder, I am passionate about bringing hope and help to individuals who are struggling with food and their relationship with their body. I have and have seen individuals extinguish their eating disorder behaviors, as well as grow, learn, and accept the body they are living in.
