We live in a culture that constantly promotes dieting and fat-phobia. If you want a more peaceful and easy relationship with food or your body, counseling may help you explore the unhelpful beliefs and behaviors that get in the way. My eating disorder work is informed by the Health At Every Size (HAES) & Body Liberation frameworks.

Our work together will revolve around guiding you back to the body trust you once had, so you can release any shame you may have around food, your body, and yourself. Together we will get to the root of and process the messages you learned about food and your body, unlearn the diet culture b.s, and create your unique path to healing.

I have supported folks with eating disorder recovery and stabilization at the PHP/IOP and outpatient levels of care. I understand that eating disorders are complex, emotional and medical conditions that impact a person's physical, social, occupational/academic, and emotional well-being. I view "recovery" as a reclamation process, where I support my clients in restoring what they lost to live more full, balanced lives. I embrace body-trust and body-diversity/Health-at-Every-Size treatment models.

If you struggle with your relationship to food and movement -- I can help. Many of us struggle with internalized fatphobia and I can provide you resources and tools to dismantle this belief that was socialized into you. We've come to learn through living under capitalism, that it can feel safer to live in a particular kind of body; the kind of body that capitalism deems "acceptable." This simply isn't a reality. Work with me to dismantle unrealistic expectations we hold for our body.

The way I support clients in addressing their eating disorders in therapy really depends on what their goals are, how the ED is impacting their life, and the underlying reasons beneath the behaviors.
