In person office located in San Diego, CAlifornia. Virtual sessions available in all of Ca, WA, UT & FL.
Welcome
It takes so much courage to ask for help- we are so glad you are here. Our expertise includes treating Eating Disorders, Body Image Issues, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Anxiety. In additions, we commonly work with Neurodivergence, Chronic Illness, mental health issues specific to the BIPOC community and Perinatal Mental Health. With professional training and lived experience, we understand the unique challenges of recovery and how terrifying yet necessary it feels. We understand no two journeys are alike and provide a compassionate, individualized and agentic approach. We aim to empower you to define your own recovery, utilizing treatment modalities that feel right for you in addition to harm reduction strategies that honor your autonomy, safety and capacity.
We prioritize social justice in our work, understanding that systems like racism, anti-fatness and cis-hetero-patriarchy show up in the ways we treat our bodies and experience mental health struggles. These undoubtably show up in the mental health industry as well, and we aim to provide a more inclusive space. As intersectional therapists, we warmly embrace and affirm your diverse identities, including sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, race, ability, and class.

Living with an eating disorder is exhausting.
“Healing from an eating disorder is the hardest thing I have ever done AND the freedom so worth it.”
Are you tired of feeling consumed with thoughts about food and your body?
Have your struggles with food and/or body image been making you feel INCREASINGLY more isolated- causing issues in your most important relationships?
Do you often feel guilty or bad if you break a ‘food rule’ or ‘exercise rule’?
Do you feel like your life has become ‘small’ the more obsessed you get with food rules, calories, the pursuit of weight loss, etc?
Do you find yourself unable to find pleasure in the things that used to bring you joy?
Have you been telling yourself you’ll get things ‘under control’ tomorrow, next week or next month, only to feel like it’s controlling YOU?
We have been in your shoes. Nothing is worse than realizing how much your Eating Disorder has taken from you. It is possible to reclaim your joy, time, self and relationships- we can help you get there!

OCD can make you feel like you are losing your mind.
Do you feel flooded with intrusive and unwanted images, thoughts or sensations?
Are you scared to tell people because you know it sounds odd or even disturbing?
Do you find yourself in a relentless battle of trying to make the thoughts go away- only to temporarily find relief until they come back even stronger?
Are you questioning if these intrusive thoughts mean something very real and bad about you?
If you answered yes to any of the above, you are in the right place. OCD is torturous. OCD is called the ‘doubting disorder’. It makes you question everything about yourself- wondering if you might actually be an awful or harmful person for having such disturbing thoughts. OCD attacks what we value MOST. That is why it feels so distressing. Therapy for OCD can help you find peace from the endless loop of obsessions and compulsions by building self trust, learning skills to cope with unwanted thoughts and ultimately, breaking the cycle by resisting the compulsions.
