If you find yourself struggling with your relationship with food and/or body image, please consider taking that first step and reaching out. It's not easy to admit that we need help, but reaching out is the first step towards healing and finding a healthier relationship with food and your body. As someone who specializes in treating binge eating disorder, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and disordered eating, I have the knowledge and expertise to guide you towards recovery. Whether you find yourself restricting food, compensating with exercise, bingeing, purging, or constantly dealing with body image concerns, I am here to help you navigate through these challenges. Together, we can work towards developing a healthier relationship with food, improving body image, and finding sustainable strategies for long-term recovery. Don't let these struggles define you – take that first step and reach out; the journey towards healing starts with you.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Kentucky. I have been in practice for 16 years. The last 10 years I have worked with clients in an outpatient setting. I am passionate about helping individuals recover from eating disorders. While I specialize in working with people struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image concerns, I also work with people seeking treatment for non-eating related issues such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and more.

I am strongly informed by the Health at Every Size (HAES) philosophy. HAES is a social movement working to promote size-acceptance and lessen the cultural obsession with weight loss, thinness and that size determines health. I believe people of all sizes deserve respect and good health. As a therapist I am compassionate and supportive, yet direct and result oriented. I enjoy using humor in sessions as well! I will work with you to build on your strengths and achieve your goals.
