Your eating issues may have suddenly become problematic or they may have been around "forever". Either way, you deserve to get help to bring balance and flexibility back into your ...

I am formally trained in Eye Movement Densensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), DBT, IFS, and Nature-informed therapy (NIT). I received my B.A. in Legal Studies with a cert...
I help dedicated young people learn to loosen the hold of intense thoughts and anxieties to feel empowered and competent in what they do. It’s hard to get things done because of thoughts and worries that hold you back even though you know you want to let them go. And even when you do accomplish your tasks efficiently the inner toll it takes feels much greater than the task itself. Sometimes the physical toll of all this mental baggage is apparent and you feel it in your body. With dedication pra...

Life as a college student is supposed to be great, but at the end of the day it can really suck.

According to the American College Health Association’s 2018 study, 63 percent of college students said they had “felt overwhelming anxiety” and more than 41 percent said they had felt so depressed that it wa...
