Personalized psychotherapy for eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, and more.

You deserve to heal and thrive.

People often come to therapy after something has become too challenging to address on their own. Recognizing this need for a change in your life is significant and scary, but it marks the initial step toward healing and thriving.

Thriving entails experiencing a sense of wholeness, finding satisfaction in life, and cultivating relationships. Exploring the healing process holds the potential for a transformative impact on your life.

About

I offer a therapeutic space that is non-judgmental, reflective, warm, authentic, and collaborative. Together we will find proactive strategies to support you in healing and growth. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. While I am grounded in psychodynamic therapy, my treatment approach blends elements from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Radical Openness Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (RO-DBT), and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My practice is also informed by Health at Every Size and Creating Sanctuary. I utilize these diverse therapeutic methods to empower clients and support them in shifting from their habitual patterns to new ways of thriving.

I have over a decade of experience working with individuals seeking change. I am particularly passionate about working with adults, adolescents, children, and families who struggle with eating disorders, trauma and anxiety. I earned my doctoral degree in counseling psychology from Carlow University. During my predoctoral internship at Kaiser Permanente, I focused on eating disorders, addiction medicine, assessment, anxiety, and trauma therapy. Subsequently, I also completed a postdoctoral residency at Kaiser Permanente, specializing in the Eating Disorder Outpatient Program and Adult Psychiatry Teams. Following my residency, I later led the Eating Disorder Outpatient Program at Kaiser.

  • The cost for therapy is $250 per session. For those seeking more affordable treatment options, I provide a limited number of appointments on a sliding scale.
