I love working with teens. I use family-based strategies to come alongside teens and their families in creating and maintaining long-term support for the challenges adolescents face. I strive to be creative and flexible in helping each individual work toward their goals and grow emotionally, socially, and psychologically. Teens face unique pressures related to school, sports, relationships, and online presence. My goal is to be a trusted adult who provides a safe, supportive space to process these experiences, tailored to each teen’s specific needs.

For adults, recovery can be especially challenging while balancing work, relationships, and major life transitions. Many adults are also navigating long-standing patterns around food, body image, and coping, all while managing full and demanding lives. Being responsible for one’s own food during recovery adds another layer of complexity. Through psychoeducation, skill-building, and processing past experiences, I support clients in creating sustainable change that fits into their real-world responsibilities. I also collaborate with a multidisciplinary team—often including primary care providers, dietitians, psychiatrists, social workers, and family therapists—to ensure comprehensive, coordinated support that promotes long-term recovery.

As a therapist who has recovered from her own eating disorder, I deeply understand the darkness and isolation that can accompany this illness. This lived experience fuels my passion for this work and allows me to offer both clinical expertise and genuine empathy. Recovery is possible, and I feel honored to support those who are considering this brave and transformative journey.
