Great question! I pride myself on being relatable and truly connected to my clients. While I use evidence-based treatment methods, I also believe in being a human in the therapy room. I bring authenticity, warmth, and—when appropriate—a bit of humor into our sessions. Most importantly, I focus on building a genuine, trusting relationship where you feel safe to explore and grow.

My style is pretty laid-back and conversational. While I provide helpful resources, I don’t rely heavily on worksheets or rigid exercises—our time together is best spent processing emotions, exploring patterns, and working through challenges in a way that feels natural.

Therapy, to me, is a collaborative process. I’m here to guide and support you, but at the end of the day, you are the expert on your own life. My goal is to help you feel empowered, heard, and equipped with the tools you need to navigate your journey.

Yes! In addition to treating eating disorders, I have experience working with anxiety, depression, and OCD. I also have specialized training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), an evidence-based treatment for OCD.

I also enjoy supporting clients through life transitions, especially those preparing for or adjusting to college—a time that can be both exciting and overwhelming. If you’re unsure whether we’d be a good fit, I’d love to chat! Feel free to schedule a consultation so we can explore how I can best support you.

I’m located at 118 N. Main Street, Greensburg, in the building marked “Counseling, Wellness, and Creative Arts.” My office is in Suite 6, right on the main floor. Just walk straight down the main hallway and you’ll find it.

If you arrive while I’m in session, feel free to make yourself comfortable in any of the seating areas along the hallway.

Parking Info (because I get it—parking anxiety is real): There’s metered parking (you can also use the Meter Feeder app) right next to the building in a lot called “Helman-Ghrist.” It usually has spots available, but just in case it’s full, no worries—there are several other parking options nearby.

Yes, I offer both in-person and virtual sessions. For virtual sessions, please note that you need to be located in Pennsylvania, as I can only provide teletherapy within the state. Whether you prefer the convenience of virtual therapy or the personal connection of in-person, I’m here to support you in whichever way works best for you!

Absolutely! With the appropriate releases of information, I’m happy to work alongside any provider on your treatment team, including registered dietitians, psychiatrists, doctors, and other healthcare professionals. Collaboration is not only encouraged—it’s considered best practice. A team-based approach ensures that you receive the most comprehensive and effective care possible.

Health at Every Size (HAES) is a public health movement that advocates for the health and well-being of people of all sizes. Rather than focusing on weight loss as the primary goal, HAES shifts the emphasis to adopting healthy behaviors, practicing body acceptance, and promoting overall well-being. It encourages intuitive eating, movement that feels good, and respectful, compassionate care. At its core, HAES embraces a weight-neutral approach to health, meaning that health is not determined by size or weight.

Intuitive eating, at its core, is about making peace with food, letting go of dieting and restrictive eating behaviors, and learning to trust your body’s natural hunger cues. The term was coined in 1995 by Registered Dietitian Evelyn Tribole and nutrition therapist Elyse Resch in their book "Intuitive Eating." Since then, over 125 studies have explored the positive impact of this approach to eating.

Intuitive eating is NOT just for treating eating disorders. It's for anyone who has struggled with a complicated or strained relationship with food—whether it’s due to dieting, body image concerns, or simply feeling disconnected from your body’s signals. It’s a healthy, balanced way to approach food and self-care, free from the constraints of fad diets or restrictive rules.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out. Eating disorders are often missed—sometimes due to outdated diagnostic criteria or limited provider training. We’ll complete a thorough assessment to explore your concerns and determine the most supportive next steps.

It’s important to remember that eating disorders don’t have a specific “look” and can’t be ruled out based on weight or appearance alone. Your experience is valid, and you deserve to be heard and supported.
