You’re here because your relationship with food feels chaotic or rigid, and you’re exhausted from the struggle.

You struggle with obsessive thoughts about food or calories and intrusive body image distress.

You feel like your mind and your body speak two different languages.

Efforts to be “healthy” it spiral into excessive food noise and rigid rules.

Your trauma is deeply intertwined with your relationship to food and your body, and you know you need to address them both in order to heal your full self.

You may have tried treatment before and found it unhelpful or you still have lingering symptoms that feel like they’ll never go away.

Or maybe you may feel like the label “eating disorder” doesn’t fit, because of how your body looks, or because of what you’ve been told, or because you just don’t feel “sick enough”.

But you still know you something doesn’t feel right.

For many adults and adolescents, eating disorders and disordered eating are deeply intertwined with shame and nervous system survival patterns. Trying to “just eat normally” without addressing the underlying trauma often backfires.

I offer specialized eating disorder therapy in Seattle, in person, that integrates trauma-informed care and somatic, body-oriented support. With over 8 years experience as a dietitian in higher level eating disorder treatment, I bring a deep understanding of medical complexity, high acuity symptoms and the emotional intensity that accompanies the recovery journey. I have particular expertise in supporting high-functioning and over-intellectualizing individuals with binge-restrict patterns, and supporting step-down from higher level of care treatment (residential, PHP or IOP).
