Individual Therapy
In my individual therapy sessions, I offer a nurturing environment where adults and adolescents can embark on their personal journey of transformation. Whether you're navigating through life's challenging transitions, ready to confront past traumas, or simply seeking support to tackle current stressors, I'm here to walk alongside you with empathy and understanding every step of the way. Together, we'll cultivate a safe space for exploration and growth, empowering you to discover your inner resilience and create positive change in your life.
Eating Disorder Treatment
In my approach to eating disorder treatment, inclusivity and trauma-informed care are at the forefront. I'm deeply committed to providing a safe, judgment-free space for individuals struggling with eating disorders and disordered eating. Embracing Health at Every Size (HAES) and Body Trust perspective, I view each client as a whole person, not defined by their diagnosis. My goal is to empower you to reclaim your relationship with food and your body, fostering healing and self-compassion along the way. With a comprehensive team approach, I'll connect you with trusted professionals, including eating disorder-informed physicians and registered dietitians, ensuring you receive holistic support tailored to your needs. Together, we'll navigate this journey with empathy, resilience, and a commitment to your well-being.
Trauma Therapy
In addressing trauma, I offer a powerful tool known as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Backed by extensive research, EMDR is a highly effective psychotherapy method for healing from trauma and distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR doesn't necessitate delving deeply into painful memories or completing homework between sessions. Instead, it's designed to help resolve unprocessed traumatic memories in the brain, promoting healing and emotional resolution. With EMDR therapy, we'll work together to navigate your trauma journey with gentleness, resilience, and a focus on reclaiming your inner strength and well-being.
Family Therapy
When it comes to family therapy, I understand the intricate web of dynamics that shape our connections, especially within the family unit. Together, we'll navigate these dynamics, fostering understanding, communication, and healing. Whether you're looking to strengthen family bonds, address conflicts, or support a loved one through challenging times, I'm here to guide your family towards a more harmonious and resilient future.
Additionally, for parents navigating the complexities of eating disorders in their children, I offer specialized support through parent coaching. This includes understanding the unique challenges, providing tools for effective communication, and assisting you in creating a nurturing environment for your child's recovery journey. Together, we'll empower your family with the resources and strategies needed to navigate these challenges, fostering a sense of unity and resilience in the face of adversity.
Professional Services & Supervision
I provide tailored support and training for individuals and groups seeking to deepen their understanding of eating disorders, body dysmorphia, and the complex systems of oppression intertwined with our cultural attitudes towards bodies. Through consultation services and professional trainings, I offer insights into the intricacies of these issues and guide participants in implementing a Health at Every Size (HAES) approach within their work.
Additionally, for pre-licensed clinicians in Texas and California, I offer LCSW supervision, providing a supportive and enriching environment for professional growth and development. Whether you're seeking to enhance your clinical skills, deepen your understanding of trauma-informed care, or integrate HAES principles into your practice, I'm here to support you on your journey towards becoming a more effective and compassionate therapist. Let's embark on this collaborative journey towards transformative change within ourselves and our communities.
