About

With over 20 years of experience, I am a therapist at Nourishment Works, a Chicago-based group practice offering compassionate, weight-inclusive mental health care. I provide therapy for individuals seeking greater balance, self-acceptance, and clarity in their relationship with themselves, their bodies, and daily nourishment. I work with clients navigating anxiety, stress, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions using a non-diet, collaborative approach grounded in respect and curiosity. If you’re seeking therapy that supports meaningful, sustainable change, we can work together to create care aligned with your values.
