    Trauma

    If you are dealing with unprocessed or unresolved trauma that is negatively impacting your day-to-day life, I would like to offer the space and the tools to move towards healing and growth. In trauma work, I prioritize establishing a sense of stabilization and safety within your own body, processing and making meaning of your experience, and integrating this experience into the overarching narrative of your life.

    Eating Disorders

    I can work with you to address a variety of eating disorder behaviors, such as restriction, binge eating, purging, compulsive exercise, food avoidance, body checking, and more. I will prioritize helping you find healing in your relationship with both food and your own body. I have experience working with a range of diagnoses, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and avoidant restrictive food intake disorder.

    Addiction

    Whether you are dealing with substance misuse, excessive gambling, compulsive sexual behavior, shopping addiction, or some other form of process addiction, together we can explore the underlying factors behind the behaviors that cause you distress and pain. I understand that addiction is rooted in a need to alleviate and find relief from suffering, and my aim is to help you find relief in ways that may be more aligned with your values.

    Self-Esteem Issues

    Do you find that you are constantly doubting yourself or speaking to yourself in a harsh and negative manner? Sometimes our life experiences may lead us to believe that we are incapable, worthless, or without hope. I will work with you to build a greater sense of self-efficacy, self-compassion, and self-esteem by fostering a deeper understanding of yourself and why you think the way that you do.

    Depression & Anxiety

    Do you feel overwhelmed by a feeling of sadness or emptiness, struggling to engage in activities that once interested you? Or perhaps you feel constantly and excessively worried, fixated on the idea that something is bound to go wrong without knowing what that “something” is. For those living with depression, anxiety, or a combination of both, I feel confident that we can work together to identify triggers and find new ways of experiencing the world.

    In addition to the previously mentioned topics, I also have experience in treating impulsivity, codependency, self-harm, interpersonal difficulties, relationship issues, and spiritual concerns.
