Eating Disorders

Eating disorders are not about food alone. They are often protective responses to trauma or unmet needs.

We explore the role food has played in your life with care and curiosity, not judgement. Healing focuses on restoring safety, choice and trust in your body.

I work with individuals navigating:

Restriction, bingeing, purging, or rigid food rules

Body image distress and disconnection from the body

Shame, secrecy or fear around eating

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

OCD can feel relentless - thoughts won’t quiet, urges that demand certainty, and an internal sense of threat that will not turn off.

I work with OCD through a compassionate, evidenced based lens that recognizes obsessive and compulsive patterns as attempts to protect against fear or uncertainty.

Rather than fighting these parts, we work to:

Understand their purpose

Increase distress tolerance

Reduce their intensity

I support clients working through:

Emotional neglect

Attachment wounds

Long-standing patterns of self-criticism, hypervigilance or emotional shut down

Childhood and Developmental Trauma

When trauma occurs early in life, it often affects how we relate to ourselves and others — even when memories are unclear or fragmented.

We gently engage the younger parts that learned to adapt — without overwhelming them or forcing change before safety is established.

I work with individuals navigating:

Fear-based religious messaging

Shame around identity, body, or sexuality

Grief, anger, or confusion after leaving a faith community

Sexual Trauma

sexual trauma can shape how the body, mind, and sense of safety respond long after the experience itself has passed.

This work moves slowly and collaboratively. We listen to the parts that learned to survive — honoring their role while helping them feel less alone in the present.

I offer a safe, contained space to work with:

Sexual abuse or assault

Boundary violations

Shame, fear, or disconnection related to intimacy
