    UC Santa Barbara

    • I was a D1 student athlete in Women’s Swimming at both Indiana University and UC Santa Barbara.

  • With over 10 years of clinical experience at different levels of mental health care, I offer a compassionate and structured approach so you can improve your relationship with food, your body, yourself, and others in concrete, and practical ways.

    I’m also a clinical supervisor for other therapists and have been supervising and training other therapists for the last 6 years.

  • I draw from a variety of therapy approaches including:

    I offer weight-inclusive care guided by the principles of Health at Every Size® (HAES®). The focus is on supporting overall well-being without centering weight as the main measure of health. My approach emphasizes sustainable habits like finding enjoyable ways to move and nourish your body. I aim to provide a respectful, nonjudgmental space where all bodies are valued. Your care will always center your unique needs, goals, and experiences.

    I am committed to providing affirming and inclusive care for LGBTQIA+ individuals. The therapy space is one where you can show up as your full, authentic self without fear of judgment. I celebrate the diversity of gender, sexuality, and expression and am here to support you in your journey toward healing, self-acceptance, and thriving. Everyone deserves care that affirms who they are.

    My goal is for people to leave each session feeling heard and understood and with something tangible, whether it's a new perspective, a strategy, or a skill to try or focus on afterward.

  • I enjoy fostering senior rescue dogs, golfing, practicing yoga, seeing live music and comedy, and watercolor painting.
