My experience and specialization includes diagnoses and treatment of individuals struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, chronic dieting, body image distress, and a variety of anxiety-related disorders. I take a Behavioral, Dialectical and Intuitive Eating approach to my treatment, where I teach clients a variety of skills and tools to manage distress, improve thinking patterns and self-talk, and heal/neutralize relationship with food/body.
Specialties
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidenced-based approach that focuses on how thoughts, emotions and behaviors influence one another. CBT targets unhelpful thinking patterns and emotions that often lead to unhelpful reactive behavior, and aids in rewiring neuro pathways through cognitive skill-work, exposure to stimuli causing fear, and managing distressing emotions using self-help strategies. Let's rewire the anxious brain!
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment that helps people develop mindful coping skills, interpersonal skills and communication, emotion management, and distress tolerance. DBT directly addresses emotional dysregulation, reduces black and white and perfectionistic thinking, improves impulse control and reduces unhelpful behavior patterns, strengthens relationships and communication, and ultimately takes a validating and non-judgmental approach.
Specialties
I specialize in the diagnosing and treatment of individuals with eating disorders and professional experience working in individual, group, residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient treatment programs. I utilize a Health at Every Size (HAES) and Intuitive Eating lens in my work, as I focus on going back to a grassroots approach of learning how to reintegrate instinct, emotion and rational thought into one's relationship with food and their body.
