While I don’t specialize in eating disorders, I understand the ways that past trauma, perfectionism, control, and issues around worth and identity can impact our behaviors. Eating disorders, substance use, pornography addiction... the list could go on. We all go through pain, and we gravitate towards behaviors that promise control and relief from that pain. But, deep down, you probably know that long-term this story doesn’t end well. You probably need not only deep healing, but new strategies for coping with your present and building a hopeful future. At Lion Counseling, our mission is to help you escape the cages that hold you back and become the lion God created you to be.

In my approach to eating disorder counseling, I prioritize creating a non-judgmental and supportive environment where clients feel safe to explore the underlying issues contributing to their eating behaviors. I integrate evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to address the complex interplay of emotional, psychological, and social factors involved. By working collaboratively with clients, I can help them develop healthier relationships with food and their bodies, identify and challenge harmful thought patterns, and build coping skills for managing stress and emotions.
