I utilize Family Based Therapy (FBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), and Enhanced Cognitive Behavior (CBT-E) for eating disorders. I operate from a strengths based approach and believe empowering individuals and families is key to making any last change. I offer evidence-based care, but also believe that collaboration is necessary component in any therapeutic relationship.
I completed my under graduate degree in psychology from The Ohio State University. I then went on to earn my Master’s of Science in Social Administration (MSSA) from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH. As part of my degree, I completed an internship with the former Cleveland Center for Eating Disorders where I worked with both adults and adolescents working to overcome their eating disorders.
Upon completion of my graduate degree, I worked as a therapist in the partial hospitalization program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital where I facilitated group, individual and family sessions. Most recently prior to joining Eating and Behavioral Health Associates I worked in the Caner and Blood Diseases Institute at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. I held roles supporting patients ages from infancy to adulthood and their families through diagnosis and treatment, along with supporting long-term survivors managing late-effects of treatment.
