Welcome, and thanks for visiting!

I am a medical/psychological anthropologist with a research focus on embodiment, intersubjectivity, and mental health. 

I am primarily interested in how people understand and experience and navigate existential challenges: Who am I? Why am I here? What’s my purpose?

I write about eating disorders, dissociative identity disorder, gender, religion, and polyamory/consensual non-monogamy.

I am also a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) specializing in working with eating disorders, mood disorders, trauma, self-harm, gender/sexuality issues and relationship challenges.
