My psychotherapy practice includes care and treatment of individuals, couples, families, and groups. While I specialize in eating disorders, I have expertise in the following areas of treatment: Depression, Communication problems in Couples, Low Self-Esteem, Substance Abuse, Sexual Abuse, Sexual Orientation Issues, and Gender Identity Issues. My use of psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy, combined with an art therapy/expressive arts approach, encourages the development of the individual's unique path to change. I base my practice on strengthening the individual and her/his support system to embrace change in the way that feels most natural and authentic. In my use of these therapies, my greatest concern is to understand and respect the needs of the client. I work collaboratively so that together we can arrive at the therapeutic goals.
More Info About My Practice
Treatment of Eating Disorders: Anorexia, Bulimia, and Binge Eating The style of my work incorporates both Psycho-dynamic and Cognitive Behavioral techniques. By raising awareness of unconscious behaviors, feelings, and motivations, the source of the eating disorder can best be revealed, creating space for change and personal growth. The cognitive behavioral techniques aid in providing choices and alternatives to dysfunctional eating disordered behaviors. I facilitate this type of work through traditional talk-therapy as well as art and expressive arts techniques. I work dynamically as a team with my clients other healthcare providers when treating eating disorders
