I am a non-diet, Health At Every Size Eating Disorder and OCD specialist. My passion for this work comes from recovering from an eating disorder myself, living with OCD everyday, and becoming a mom to my sweet little boy. Having struggled with disordered eating most of my life, I always passed off those behaviors as normal. It took me a long time to believe that the way I was living didn’t need to be my future. My goal is to support my clients in finding the same freedom!
I believe fully in implementing harm reduction to my treatment approach, looking for small, realistic changes rather than extinction of behaviors. I work hard to remain trauma-informed, and aim to incorporate social justice, feminist, and person-centered theories to my work.
Fun Facts About Me:
I’m obsessed with all Bravo shows
My favorite food is a toss up between pizza and a good ice cream sandwich
I have a golden retriever, named Rosie, that is my whole world!
