My Ideal Client

I attract sensitive souls who are yearning for depth in their therapy — deep feeling, deep thinking, deep relating. Together we go to places that have perhaps not felt possible to go alone. Together we seek not just self-understanding but growth, change, and relief. I also attract people who are looking for a safe place to be fat-bodied, or a safe place to discuss chronic illness experiences without being disbelieved. And I love working with other therapists!

My Approach to Helping

My approach is rooted in warmth, kindness, and empathy. I care deeply about my clients and I’m told it shows through my kind eyes, my gentle words, and my keen attentiveness. I want you to feel seen and known. I work very hard to understand what creates lasting change in therapy, and to bring that knowledge to bear for my clients.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in inclusive care, and I practice from an intersectional feminist, fat liberation, and Health At Every Size (HAES)-informed lens. I believe that experiences of oppression and ostracism (be they rooted in racism, colorism, sizeism, ableism, ageism, homophobia, transphobia, classism, sexism, neuronormativity, or otherwise) can be profoundly traumatic and that people need and deserve support as they navigate them. I come to my work with humility and a keen desire to keep learning how to better support those whose identities and social locations are different than my own.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) External link

    AEDP is my primary approach to therapy. AEDP practitioners believe that trauma happens when a person has to face overwhelming emotions without adequate support. We believe that helping people “undo their aloneness” in supportive, gentle ways can facilitate healing and transformation. AEDP is relational and attachment-focused (uses the relationship of the client and counselor heavily), experiential (makes use of present moment experiences in the counseling), and somatic (uses the body).

  • Feminist External link

    My work is informed by intersectional feminism, social justice, and systems thinking. I help my clients widen their lenses to see the systemic forces and oppression impact their day-to-day lives. With this broader view, self compassion and self understanding can take root, replacing self-blame and shame. As a feminist counselor, I also aim to reduce the hierarchy in our relationship and see us as collaborators who bring different knowledge to our work together.

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • Body Image Issues External link

    Body shame tends to impact nearly every corner of our lives—our most intimate relationships, our friendships, our work, our play. Whatever your body size, I can introduce you to concepts from Health At Every Size®, Body Trust®, and fat liberation, and help you replace your shame with a kind and trusting relationship with your body. I especially love supporting those in fat bodies, because we face unique challenges in the world (i.e., fatphobia, weight bias, and size-based oppression).

  • Eating Disorder External link

    When we struggle with disordered eating, it tends to take up an immense amount of space in our brain. I want you to be able to free up that space and use it for things that actually matter to you! I specialize in supporting those who are struggling with binge eating (including Binge Eating Disorder) and chronic dieting. I practice uses the lenses of Health At Every Size, fat liberation, and Body Trust®.

  • Chronic Pain or Illness External link

    I live with chronic illness and pain from Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I know the misogyny, disinterest, gaslighting, and fatphobia that occur routinely within the medical system, and the tolls these can take on mental health. I am here to accompany you in your experiences of chronic illness and chronic pain. We can explore the emotional impacts (like grief, anger, sadness), process experiences of disability and ableism, and help you find moments of contentment and joy despite bodily obstacles.
