Does life feel messy?
Longing for change but not sure how to start?
Kerry Martinelli, LMFT
Neurodivergent, Eating Disorder, & Trauma Therapy in Orange County
My therapy specialties include...
Brainspotting is a powerful somatic therapy that helps process trauma stored in the body.
This approach is particularly effective for:
-
Trauma underlying eating disorders and neurodivergence
-
PTSD and complex trauma
-
Body-based trauma responses
-
Nervous system regulation
-
Accessing and healing deep emotional wounds
Healing your relationship with food and your body through specialized eating disorder treatment.
I work with adults experiencing:
-
Anorexia nervosa
-
Binge eating disorder
-
Emotional eating and food anxiety
-
Body image struggles
-
Exercise compulsion
Understand yourself and find more self-compassion as you discover how to be more yourself and support your unique needs and talents.
​
I help neurodivergent adults with:
-
Autistic burnout
-
ADHD executive function challenges
-
Determining beneficial accommodations for daily living
-
Unlearning internalized ablism
IFS therapy helps you understand the different "parts" of yourself - including the parts that developed to protect you around food, body image, and trauma.
This powerful approach helps you:
-
Develop self-compassion for all parts of yourself
-
Heal the wounded parts that drive eating disorder behaviors
-
Access your authentic Self and inner wisdom
-
Create internal harmony and self-leadership
Bring your beliefs and doubts - all are welcomed and celebrated here. I honor the spiritual dimensions of healing while respecting your unique beliefs and background.
