Philadelphia, PA

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with several years of experience treating eating disorders and disordered eating and working with athletes navigating anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges and life transitions. I have experience working at higher levels of care as well as outpatient and value collaboration with the whole treatment team. I also have my Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C) and work with pregnant and postpartum individuals.

While the foundation of my work is grounded in relational safety and rapport, I will tailor my approach to each of my individual clients. This is going to vary based on your goals, presenting challenges, personality, and what we find together feels right for you!  I often rely on principles from internal family systems and psychodynamic work and depending on your goals, I will thoughtfully incorporate skills from mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and motivational interviewing in our work together to further foster desired growth. My work is strongly grounded in the principles of Health At Every Size (HAES) and intuitive eating with an anti-diet/fat-positive approach and LGBTQIA+ affirming.  I believe we all need to feel seen and connected to others and ourselves to be truly fulfilled. As you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, you will be able to make meaningful and lasting changes in your life. I specialize in supporting high-achieving individuals who are used to "doing it all" and struggle to slow down and prioritize themselves.
