Reclaim your life from toxic relationships or disordered eating.
Available virtually in Virginia, Maryland, and Florida.
You’ve been bending over backwards trying to be everything for everyone—except yourself.
Watering yourself down to fit a crappy partner or squeezing (literally and figuratively) into the world’s expectations has left you tired, sad, and barely there—like a ghost of who you used to be.
Picture stepping back into your power–doing what makes you happy, eating the food you love, and living for your desires, not anyone else’s checklist.
You’re DONE dimming your light.
With a tailored blend of therapies like DBT, CBT, IFS, Narrative, and Reality Therapy, I’m here to help you heal and build a brighter, more exciting future free from shame and fear.
With years of experience in these specialties, I create a space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and understood.
