My Approach to Helping
My intention is to assist my clients in weathering the sometimes rough waters of life that we all encounter. The body, the mind, the emotions, and the spirit are the components that make up a human being; I recognize and honor the importance of including all of these parts for an experience of healing and growth. I do so with the utmost respect for my clients' inner wisdom.
More Info About My Practice
I am a Certified Eating Disorders Specialist through the International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals (IAEDP), and an IAEDP Approved Supervisor for those seeking certification. I believe that an eating disorder develops for a good reason: a means of coping, managing difficult emotional states, and compensating for unmet needs, but can become a life and/or health threatening problem. I work with my clients to strengthen their healthy, authentic selves, to give them a way to discover who they are and how to live without their eating problems. I'm also a yoga instructor and a Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy practitioner. for ethical reasons, I don't do yoga therapy with my psychotherapy clients, and vice versa. But my training in each modality informs the other.
