Health at Every Size® Healthcare Provider Listing

I believe that you are the expert of your own experience, and that my role as your therapist is to work alongside you to explore and conquer barriers to personal growth and promote positive change and healing. Having had experience as both a therapist and therapy client, I have an acute understanding of the importance of the client-therapist relationship in impacting successful therapy. I practice trauma-informed, integrative psychotherapy using a combination of treatment approaches depending on the individual needs of each client. This enables me to provide individualized therapy that builds on my clients’ strengths. I became a Health at Every Size® therapist after experiencing the consequences of systemic fatphobia and weight bias during a 25+ year personal battle with an eating disorder. Unfortunately the treatment I received was steeped in fatphobic and weight-biased practices which only served to prolong and worsen my ED. When I finally learned about HAES®, I was able to recover from my ED. It changed everything for me! I want this for my clients too! As a HAES therapist, I believe in body diversity, respect and autonomy for individuals of all body sizes. I actively help my clients advocate for themselves in the oppressive systems they have to navigate on a daily basis. As a therapist, I strive to provide a warm, inclusive and collaborative environment for my clients and encourage ongoing client feedback.
