Emotional & Compulsive Eating • Binge Eating Disorder Hypnotherapy • Mind–Body Recovery

6901 Holly Road        
Corpus Christi, Texas 78414

Welcome to EatingRecoveryTexas.com, a specialized practice for individuals struggling with being overweight,  binge eating, bulimia, emotional eating, compulsive overeating, food-related anxiety, and body shame.

As a Registered Nurse (RN) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I offer an integrative, evidence-informed approach that supports the mind, body, and nervous system.

You don't need more willpower.

You need a treatment approach that understands why you eat the way you do — and how your brain, hormones, emotions, and subconscious patterns all work together.

Whether you’re healing from long-term eating struggles, dealing with weight regain after GLP-1 medications (Ozempic/Wegovy/Mounjaro), or recovering from failed bariatric surgery, you’re not alone — and you’re in the right place.

Serving Corpus Christi, Texas, and beyond, we help you reclaim your health, your calm, and your well-being — one step at a time.
