Services
Individual Therapy
This service is tailored to meet individual needs and treatment goals are established collaboratively between the patient, psychologist, and when appropriate, family members and other treatment providers. After the initial evaluation, recommendations for therapy will be provided. Sessions are typically scheduled for 45-minutes or 60-minutes. Length of treatment is highly dependent on the individual and personal goals.
Eating Disorder Assessment
A one-time comprehensive assessment for eating disorder concerns across the spectrum and of any severity can be scheduled without any commitment to starting therapy. Recommendations for treatment will be provided, including referral to more intensive treatment options, if appropriate.
Relationship and Parenting Support
These services are open to any person(s) seeking support with their relationships, whether it be familial, parental, or romantic. Typical goals include enhanced communication, improved intimacy, and effective conflict resolution. When parenting is the main focus, goals often include learning new strategies to address behaviors in children and teens, improve communication between parents and child, and increased support with parenting a child/teen struggling with a mental health condition.
Areas of Specialization
Eating Disorders
Specializing in eating disorders allows me to provide comprehensive support to individuals struggling with these complex conditions. By understanding the underlying psychological factors, promoting recovery, enhancing body image and self-esteem, addressing co-occurring mental health conditions, and fostering collaboration and support, I aim to help individuals overcome their eating disorders and achieve long-term psychological well-being. In therapy, we navigate the path to recovery and create a healthier relationship with food, body, and self.
Women in High Stress Positions
I am particularly passionate about working with women in high-stress careers/life situations to find greater balance, prioritize self-care, and challenge the belief that their efforts are never enough. We work collaboratively to address the impact of perfectionism, promote self-compassion and mindfulness, develop coping strategies, and work to effectively recognize and implement boundaries. I aim to empower women to thrive both personally and professionally with a goal to redefine success and cultivate a fulfilling and balanced life.
Anxiety
Specializing in anxiety allows me to provide comprehensive support to individuals struggling with this common mental health condition. In therapy we work together to understand the complexity of anxiety, utilize evidence-based treatment approaches, build resilience and emotional regulation skills, as well as address co-occurring mental health conditions. I aim to empower individuals to overcome their anxiety and cultivate resilience. We aim to create a life characterized by greater calm, confidence, and well-being.
