What is peer support?
Peer support work with me is a collaborative process where you communicate your experiences and we brainstorm solutions. Based on your needs, your resources, and your particular current situation, we will work together to help you achieve your desired outcomes, as I share my lived experience, resources, and knowledge that I’ve gathered with you.
People have come to me with a specific goal in mind, a problem to solve, or to simply have someone who understands hold space for them. Whether you are looking to gain the courage to go on your very first date ever as a fat woman, want help knowing what to say to your mother’s body-shaming comments, or need someone to listen and empathize while you share your experiences with medical fatphobia, I can be there to support you.
Why work with me?
As a child, I grew up hating everything about my body, and those beliefs transferred to hating everything about myself. Growing up in the early 2000s when an 125-pound Jessica Simpson was called morbidly obese on the cover of every magazine caused severe psychological damage and traumatized an entire generation. I was constantly told that I was too fat to be loved, to have fun, to relax, to be successful, to rest, or to ever feel any sort of happiness. I was told that my life would only begin once I lost weight.
My journey to accepting my body and loving myself exactly as I am has been a hard one, but it has also been the most rewarding experience of my life. 1:1 peer support work with me will help you identify the root of your body insecurities. Together we will work to create new thought patterns to change your life in a non-judgemental and trauma-informed space. We will work to give you the confidence to go out there and enjoy your life in exactly the body you have now.
Through body positivity and self-image work my goal is to help you stop judging yourself and to feel free enough to enjoy yourself no matter what people around you may think.
