Hi, I’m Kristen. A licensed therapist who specializes in disordered eating and negative body image. Over the last 10 years I have dedicated my studies and clinical practice to helping individuals heal their relationships to food and their bodies. I received my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an emphasis in Wilderness Therapy, from Naropa University. My work is informed by my own experience healing from an eating disorder and building trust in body on and off of the trail.

My mission is to help you build a loving and trusting relationship with your body.  Together we will explore your past history of experiences, relationships, and social constructs that have led you to believe that your body is something that "needs to be fixed". Our work will be focused on healing those experiences, and applying lessons to your current life.  

Disordered eating teaches us to ignore the signals our bodies send us. In therapy you will learn to listen to your body's intuitive wisdom about hunger, fullness, movement, and rest. The goal is to restore the trust you have in your body to know what it needs.

In our work we will examine how your disordered eating or negative body image is impacting your life, relationships, and larger goals. We will work towards letting go of the insecurities that are holding you back from living fully and showing up authentically.
