Congratulations on taking the first steps toward seeking help! I recognize that this is often very challenging and requires a great deal of courage. I work with children, families, and adults experiencing a wide variety of challenges, such as difficulty managing strong feelings, relationship conflicts, or significant stress related to the pressures of daily life. I also specialize in working with those who are overweight or obese.
I work collaboratively to accomplish each individual's unique goals. Let's work together!
Goals of specialized therapy for obesity include: improving your body image, self-esteem, and social interactions; decreasing symptoms of depression and anxiety; learning to understand the complicated process of becoming overweight/obese; identifying triggers to overeating; and developing strategies for an overall healthier lifestyle!
