I started treating eating disorders almost 30 years ago. Unfortunately the illusion of achieving “perfection” still exists today.

There is no perfection…there is no perfect control.

The question was and still is….”What are you really feeling? What are trying express, control, not deal with?”

If you need help, you know where to find me.

When I first started in practice 25 years ago, the bulk of my clientele was treating eating disorders. And while today, it’s only a small percentage of my practice, the illusion of "being perfect" is still quite prevalent. If you know someone who might be struggling, know there is excellent treatment available.

Why I still struggle with factors like perfectionism and obsessive compulsive disorder that contributed to my eating disorder three decades ago

When "let it go" isn't entirely possible, "hold it lightly" is a close second. This means not taking yourself or your experiences too seriously. It means looking at your situation from a distance to try and take in the bigger picture. When you manage to step out and gain perspective, possibilities abound.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!

I’m thankful for all of you!

I have had the pleasure to talk with and get to know so many of you; through conversations in the dm’s, phone and zoom calls, and reaching out from the podcast.

2025 will be another year of paying it forward and being of service.

Blessings to you and know I’m thinking about all those who are grieving and struggling right now. Big hugs.

✨ Calling All Moms of Teens and Tweens ✨

Are you feeling like parenting in today’s world is an entirely new game? Between social media, peer pressure, and the constant comparison culture, raising teens and tweens can feel overwhelming—and, let’s be honest, a little lonely.

You’re not just managing your child’s emotions, you’re also dealing with your own:
• “Am I doing this right?”
• “Why don’t they talk to me anymore?”
• “How do I guide them without pushing them away?”

And let’s talk about social media—because it’s a whole new level of parenting.
• How much is too much?
• What are they really seeing, saying, and feeling online?
• How do you teach them to navigate it safely without making them shut you out?

I get it—because I’ve spent 30+ years working as a therapist and coach, helping teens and parents navigate this messy, beautiful stage of life. And as a mom myself, I know how much you want to raise confident, resilient kids while keeping your own sanity intact.

That’s why I’m starting a group coaching course in January designed specifically for moms of teens and tweens like you.

💡 Here’s what you’ll gain:
• Tools to decode your teen’s behavior (and respond, not react).
• Strategies to set boundaries while building trust and connection.
• Expert insights on managing social media and screen time in a way that empowers your kids.
• Support from a group of moms who truly get it.
• Clarity about your role as a parent in this ever-changing world.

You don’t have to figure this out alone. Together, we’ll create a roadmap for parenting with purpose, peace, and confidence.

✨ Spots are limited, so if this speaks to you, DM me or comment “Interested” below, and I’ll send you all the details!

Let’s make 2024 the year you step into parenting with clarity and calm.

Monitoring your child's texts is crucial for safety. Learn when to seek help for child's texts, identify warning signs, and know how to start the conversation.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are having a pretty good year. Taylor’s in the middle of a history-making tour and just broke a record at the Grammys and Travis just won the Super Bowl. They’re getting a lot of love from friends and fans but they’re also getting a lot of hate.

It comes with fame but the rest of us deal with it too, to a lesser degree, but the haters still hurt us. I’m talking about friends all month so I want you to look at the friends in your life. Are they cheering you on, or are they jealous, do they lift you up, or do they downplay or flat out ignore your wins?

You’re too wonderful to waste your time with haters. Channel your energy into the friends who are rooting for you. It’s better to have a small circle of people who celebrate you than a large one filled with people waiting for you to fumble.

If you need help finding quality friends, dm me, I got you.

It’s been a crazy busy holiday season!

I know I am blessed with such a large and loving family.

In the end that’s all that matters.

I hope the holidays treated you well.

I am so appreciative that you allow me time and space in your lives.

My wish is that what I say on social media may resonate with you so that you know…really know, that we’re all on a similar journey and that no one has it all figured out.

Happy New Year!🎊
