About My Clients
Do you struggle with your relationship with food, your body, or exercise? I take a Health at Every Size approach to my work with eating disorders. My approach is based in attachment & family work with skill building when necessary. Getting to the root of the issue is as important as focusing on problem-solving in the present. I also specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ & POC communities on a variety of issues including but not limited to coming out, transitioning, and identity work.
My Background and Approach
When it comes to eating disorders or disordered eating, something that becomes pretty clear over time is that it is not simply about food or one's body. My job is to help you uncover what truly is going on. The behaviors, restriction, purging, binging, exercising, etc, are actually helping you cope with something. Our work together starts out as just simply being detectives trying to understand and solve the mystery. Once the other sources of distress are uncovered, we work on developing other forms of coping, all the while having compassion and understanding for why it was necessary for the eating disorder to be there in the first place. Complicated? Well you wont be alone!
