LP, 5 years of experience
Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist offering virtual therapy services in South Carolina, Illinois, and Virginia. I received my doctoral degree in clinical psychology from George Mason University. I specialize in evidence-based treatment for eating disorders and body image concerns. I would with children, adolescents, and adults. I would love to work with you to help you heal your relationship with food and your body.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I have over a 10 years of experience working in the eating disorders field. As a provider, I am extremely compassionate and understanding. I help individuals create a tailored plan and encourage them to stick to it in order to see measurable changes.
I love working individuals struggling with disordered eating and eating disorders. There is so much societal pressure to look a certain way, which can often lead to body dissatisfaction and disordered eating. My clients are often struggling with their relationship with food and their body and are looking to make changes, but need support and accountability to make these changes.
I have extensive experience with cognitive-behavioral therapy for treating a variety of presenting concerns, including eating disorders, anxiety disorders, and mood disorders. While working together, we will utilize CBT in both a structured and collaborative way. CBT skills help empower clients to challenge their negative thought patterns and develop healthier behaviors. I tailor my interventions to the individual needs of each client, ensuring that the process is flexible and responsive to their progress.
DBT is a structured approach that balances acceptance and change, providing clients with practical skills to manage their emotions and relationships effectively. I tailor my interventions to the individual needs of each client, ensuring a supportive and validating environment throughout the therapeutic process. I have 5+ years of experience in working with patients using DBT.
