Recovery can be a long and arduous journey, and I am invested in walking with my clients through the deepest darkness as well as the brightest days. I am a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS), thus providing recovery-focused psychotherapy to individuals battling an eating disorder is my primary specialty. I am invested in long-term psychotherapy that hinges on the therapeutic relationship, which develops over time. The ideal client for me is a human being who is motivated to move forward and improve upon his or her quality of life, and who has a willingness to try new things, even when they are frightening.

​

For over a decade I have been masterful and creative in treating individuals who courageously battle eating disorders and other severe mental illnesses. I am well equipped to treat individuals battling myriad emotional and mental health experiences including eating disorders, mood disorders, low self-esteem, anxiety disorders, and personality disorders.

​

I believe each human deserves a chance to authentically live the life they desire, and I consider it an honor to be witness to an individual’s journey. The therapeutic experience starts the minute my client picks up the phone and extends past our closing goodbye. Please contact me to start our relationship!

I am proud to serve Elm Grove, Brookfield, Wauwatosa, Waukesha, Muskego, Hartland, Delafield, all of Lake Country, Sussex,  Milwaukee, Fox Valley, North Shore, Cedarburg, Oak Creek, Mequon, Shorewood, Lake Geneva, Madison, and all of Wisconsin. 

My approach to psychotherapy is primarily psychodynamic and relational, focusing on how early relationships, past experiences, and unconscious drives influence mental health. I help adults 18y ears and older navigate mood disturbances, relational issues, identity concerns, and trauma histories, among other challenges. We work together to develop insight into these factors and address underlying emotional patterns, creating a safe space for emotional expression and exploration. As a PSYPACT-approved provider, I also offer teletherapy services to clients in participating states.

​

As a clinical psychologist, I specialize in comprehensive psychological evaluations through my company, Depth & Clarity Psychology. I provide testing for individuals ages 6 and older, addressing a wide range of presenting issues such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, learning disabilities, emotional and behavioral disturbances, and cognitive functioning. I prioritize a holistic diagnostic approach, evaluating multiple areas of functioning and considering all diagnostic possibilities. To provide a thorough understanding, I also gather information from relevant outside sources, such as teachers, family members, and healthcare providers. My goal is to provide accurate diagnoses and personalized recommendations to support growth in all areas of life.​

​Nutrition counseling services can be intimidating. This is why I am a firm believer that building trust and rapport through meaningful conversation leads to greater treatment outcomes.  My counseling approach is individually tailored to one’s nutrition journey as YOU know your body best and have lived experiences. So, let’s take the intimidation out of the equation and start working together to find the best approach for you that feels safe and supporting. 

​

For the past 5 years, I have been providing counseling services for adolescents and adults who struggle with eating and feeding disorders such as Anorexia, Bulimia, Orthorexia, Binge eating disorder, picky eating, and Unspecified Feeding or Eating Disorder (UFED).  I am passionate and devoted to practicing Health at Every Size (HAES) which is a weight-neutral and non-diet care that prioritizes listening to your body and eating what feels right for you both physically and mentally. Everybody deserves respect, compassion, and care no matter what size, shape, or capability.  

​

Food has many important functions in our lives from nostalgia, comfort, culture, hunger, emotions, celebrations, sports performance, pleasure, and connection. My mission is to empower you to find peace with food, leave diet-culture behind, and develop a healthy relationship with your body.  You deserve to take charge of your health and start experiencing the good that food has to offer.

Life is a journey filled with moments of joy, connection, and growth, as well as its share of challenges, transitions, and unexpected detours. There are times when these ups and downs can feel too overwhelming to navigate alone. As your therapist, I will be a witness to you as you are and a guide for you along the path to contentment and peace. The therapeutic relationship is built on authenticity and acceptance, and my goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, collaborative space that nurtures personal growth and healing while leaving room for joy and humor.

I currently offer individual therapy to adults, with expertise in treating depression, anxiety, life transitions, and trauma, and in supporting folks exploring self-esteem, body image, and identity formation. As a trained dance/movement therapist with a deep understanding of the mind/body connection, I work with clients to support their body awareness, self-esteem, emotional resilience, and overall well-being. I mainly facilitate talk therapy and will introduce somatic practices at your comfort level. You don’t need to be a dancer, mover, or shaker to benefit from dance movement therapy!

Healing cannot be done in isolation, and it takes great courage to seek help. It would be an honor to support you in navigating the journey towards living a grounded, authentic, and empowered life. I look forward to connecting with you!

As the first point of contact with our clients, I enjoy providing assistance and being supportive of their concerns and needs. Working along with our clinicians and staff, I help ensure that the needs of our clients are being met, along with the needs of their families. I understand the importance of providing information and sharing resources and health services that can help bring about the desirable change.

​

As a health educator, I’ve worked in a variety of healthcare settings and have spent the past two decades working in behavioral health services. I am committed to helping others achieve wellness in their own personal life.

​

Our health needs are continually changing and I believe it’s important to know what care options are available and I am passionate about being part of that education process.

I am a graduate student at Marquette University, currently completing my master’s level internship. With experience in inpatient, residential, and outpatient settings, I have worked with many adults facing eating disorders, substance use disorders, and various mood and anxiety disorders. Through these experiences, I have developed a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health and the individualized nature of the healing process.

Grounded in a humanistic approach, I believe that every individual holds the power to heal within themselves, and my role is to help clients uncover that strength. I also like to incorporate cognitive behavioral techniques, recognizing the profound impact that thoughts have on behaviors and overall well being.

I am passionate about creating a therapeutic space that is open, honest, and welcoming. I prioritize building a strong foundation of trust with each client, ensuring they feel heard, supported, and empowered throughout their journey. It excites me to work with a diverse range of individuals, as I am committed to fostering a safe and collaborative environment where meaningful healing and growth can take place. I look forward to working with you!

Life can be a series of ups and downs. I believe that learning to find space for both is key to navigating life’s journey. I find true joy in helping individuals navigate the in-between while gaining an understanding of the twists and turns. A strong therapeutic relationship is essential to a human being’s growth and discovery through the therapeutic process. That is about meeting others in the field of honesty and vulnerability, connecting beyond what is said, and sharing what is deep within. My goal is to create a safe space where exploration and growth are possible. Together we can work towards finding sustainable strategies to empower and realize one’s full potential.

​

I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults. Areas of passion and expertise include eating disorders, body image, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I individualize treatment by pulling from various evidence-based practices. I am in-network with Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Wisconsin, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Horizon Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Jersey, and Quest Behavioral Health.

​

With curiosity and empathy, change and growth can be possible. Every human deserves to be supported through their journey. I would be honored to walk alongside you. I look forward to connecting!
