My Approach to Helping

I help women who feel controlled by food. Disordered eating is a way of coping with feelings. When we eat compulsively we are really just trying to take care of those feelings in the best way we know at the time. Together, we will begin to look at what those feelings are and to process them in healthy ways so that the disordered eating becomes an unnecessary coping mechanism.

Groups I Work With

I treat a variety of client concerns, but am particularly fond of : 1. helping women who feel trapped in the binge-diet cycle learn to stop using food as a substitute for dealing with their feelings; 2. helping individuals who are struggling in their relationships with others learn to better understand themselves and the others in their lives so as to find peace in relating; 3. helping individuals process and grieve difficult losses; 4. working with individuals who are having difficulties regarding their sexual orientation.
