About My Clients
My clients tend to be willing to work on growth and self awareness. I work through a lens of empowerment and understand how society and current issues play into our reality. I have a specialty in eating disorders, and have worked in all levels of care with this population, but enjoy working with all mental health diagnoses. In general, I have worked with all ages, 10 and up and enjoy getting to know and help people on their journey.
My Background and Approach
I have a doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy, and am Licensed in MN, WI, MA, and soon IA. I have experience in all levels of care from residential treatment, to outpatient settings. I specialize in eating disorders and have strong passions for working with binge eating behaviors and pr/post bariatric clients. I currently provide group therapy support for Eating Disorders as well. While this is a specialty, I have a knowledge base in general mental health a large portion of my clients are not eating disordered. I work with trauma, infertility, relationship stress, financial concerns, etc. I tend to work from a lens of empowerment (feminist theory) and growth, bringing awareness to where the client can grow and set boundaries to bring more to their life. I also bring in skills, such as DBT, and use cognitive distortions from CBT to help clients understand unhelpful thought patterns.
