I am passionate about creating a supportive, affirming space where clients feel safe, seen, and empowered to move through life in ways that feel authentic to them.

My approach is integrative, drawing from behavioral and humanistic frameworks that are trauma-informed, identity affirming, and collaborative.

• Eating disorders and body image concerns
• Depression and mood disorders
• Anxiety
• Self-esteem and identity development

Education/Professional Experience:

I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Michigan State university and am currently pursuing my Master’s in Counseling Psychology at The Chicago School.

I have experience supporting adults with eating disorders in residential and partial hospitalization levels of care.

My work is guided by a Health At Every Size® (HAES) lens and a weight-neutral, anti-diet framework. I believe each client is the expert of their own life, and I bring curiosity, honesty, and compassion to help clients live authentically in a way that feels supportive to them.
