My Approach
I have always had a passion for helping others to accept and value their bodies and understanding their worth as individuals. I have dedicated my career to treating clients with eating disorders and helping them to reach full recovery. This work is my passion and I couldn't imagine doing anything else.
CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic Therapy are my focus, however I tailor treatment to each individual client. I love integrating the intuitive eating approach and health at every size. Eating disorder behaviors are often a way that someone is coping with underlying issues, therefore I also work with occurring issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, and relationship concerns.
My therapeutic style is warm, genuine and compassionate. However, I am also firm when it comes to helping clients to challenge their eating disorder thoughts and behaviors.
I am extremely passionate about helping people to recover. I empower clients by providing them with the insight, tools, and techniques, to attain their goals, reach full recovery and live the life they want.
I provide eating disorder therapy virtually throughout Florida.
*I am taking on a limited number of new therapy clients. If spots are full, I am happy to refer you to another clinician.
