  • "The most unique aspect of working with Ivory is how tangible she makes recovery feel. She transforms the overwhelming process into manageable goals, allowing you to see and feel your progress along the way. Working with Ivory is one of the best decisions you could make...My time with her truly changed my life."

    - Addison (former client)

  • "Ivory leads with deep care, integrity, and intentionality. As a Black queer mother, I’ve been able to talk about how racism, capitalism, sexism, and ableism impact my life and understanding of myself. Ivory has been an integral part of my healing journey."

  • "Ivory has knowledge and experience working with young girls recovering from an ED, and her approach demonstrates caring but firm/resolute support.

    - John & MB (parents of former adolescent client)

  • "Ivory showed me that I had someone on my team rooting for and believing in me. I started meeting with Ivory when I was at a very low point in my life, and throughout our work together, the tools Ivory provided me with, and her unwavering support, I gained so much clarity on the relationship I had with myself and my own self-worth. I was able to start loving myself again."
