Individual Counseling

Our Sessions May Include

My Goal:

I am a Certified Eating Disorders Specialist and approach food and body concerns with a trauma-informed lens.
My practice is inclusive, and I believe that all bodies deserve respect, nourishment, and compassion.
I aim to move clients toward healing and embodiment.
Though trained in nutrition science and psychology, I have a holistic view of nutrition, the body, and my clients.

I help clients develop their own eating and self-care practices that work for their lifestyles.
I believe in whole-self wellness and diet culture liberation.
I use concepts of Intuitive Eating, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Health-at-Every-Size (HAES), mindfulness meditation, and Somatic Experiencing (SE) when these seem right for a particular client.
I refer to and consult with psychotherapists, family therapists, medical doctors, naturopaths, psychiatrists, bodyworkers, yoga therapists, and personal trainers because I believe that teams of helping professionals can best support the work of many of my clients.
I enjoy providing shame-free coaching for parents and caregivers around challenges with food and body that may come up in families.
