You remember a time when melting down over a photo or feeling like you never stop thinking about food weren’t the “norm”… but now those days feel like a distant memory.

Don’t you wish you had the tools to change that?

You’re in the right place.

I’m Lindsey, and I help women just like you: ones that have it within them to live a more confident life, but just need the support to get there.

I help my clients find connection, understanding, and acceptance by equipping them with the tools they need to better handle their stressors and really engage with the life they want. I know that your circumstances are unique, so we collaborate every step of the way, helping you to connect with what you need in order to feel confident and ready for the life you want.

First, we connect past and present to bring awareness and understanding to why you relate to food, weight, and body the way you do. Then, we find ways to manage difficult thoughts and emotions that will be most effective for you. Through our work together, you’ll have the tools you need to cope and to feel connected to yourself so that you can thrive in your relationships.

I’m dedicated to helping women feel connected to their life again.

My training in eating disorders, body image issues, and anxiety means I have the expertise you need and deserve when reconnecting with yourself.

But at the end of the day, you want to know you’re working with someone who “gets” what it means to be a woman struggling with anxiety and hopelessness, right?

I get it because I’ve been there myself and am on my own eating disorder recovery journey. I know what it’s like to feel out of control with food, anxious that everyone around you is judging, and hopeless that things will ever get better. So when we work together, you won’t just get a trained therapist.

You’ll get someone who truly understands what you’re going through.

At the first session, you'll be greeted with a warm and inviting space, where we will sit down and begin to explore your world, getting a holistic view of the supports, stressors, and resources you currently have.
