I'm glad you're here.

 

I have worked with various populations over a couple decades now, and have a diverse background including people with trauma, disordered eating, body issues, depression, anxiety, grief and loss and relationship problems.

​

I am a playful, creative, permission-based, relational therapist. I draw from liberation, somatic, and expressive arts modalities, as well as transpersonal, queer and eco-psychologies.

​

I work mainly with adults, young people, members of the LGTBQIA+ community, couples/families/relationships, and anyone hoping to gain some peace, freedom and calm.

 

I have much experience and training working with gender nonconforming youth and adults.
 

For a decade I was a professor of Weight & Society at George Washington University, a body justice course that explored current measures of health, our culture's thin idealism, and society's relentless oppression of large bodies.

​

I treat clients suffering from body and food issues with a weight neutral, anti-diet approach.

 

I am a member of The International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals, the National Association of Social Workers and the California Society for Clinical Social Work.

​

I am licensed to practice clinical social work in California, Washington DC, Virginia, and Maryland.
