Health at Every Size® Healthcare Provider Listing

My practice is informed by feminist therapy, queer theory, anti-oppressive practice, narrative therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy. At the heart of the work I offer is the belief that a warm, non-judgmental, and compassionate relationship offers the place in which we can access healing. I believe that our realities coexist and are valid even while they may contradict one another. Issues related to power, control, privilege, and oppression intersect and inform all of our relationships and impact our mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health. I strive to be aware of my privilege and specific identities and how they interface with my clients’ identities. I like to investigate and explore the stories that we tell ourselves about ourselves, others, and the world; learn how to sit with our emotions with care and nurturance; uncover and clarify our values and learn how to use them to guide us to places of integrity, joy, and pleasure; learn ways of accessing our bodies for healing; and offer curiosity and compassion to the parts of us that bring up shame, unsustainable thinking or behavior patterns, and other wounds.

I am passionate about offering care informed by Health at Every Size®, intuitive eating, and Body Trust principles- all bodies are welcome and are deserving of respect and care. I am here to work on issues related to body image, body liberation, and disordered eating, and how body image interfaces with sex and sexuality.
