My clients come to me when they’re struggling with insulin resistance, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, PCOS, fatty liver, or midlife metabolism and are ready for a plan that actually works.
I help stabilize blood sugar, reduce insulin resistance, improve liver markers, restore cycles in PCOS, support sustainable weight loss, and increase energy. Clients see measurable changes in labs and daily symptoms. I’m not a traditional dietitian. I create a personalized metabolic roadmap based on your unique patterns, not generic advice.

If food feels difficult, confusing and/or causes you worry, let’s talk about it. I’m here to help make it a bit easier. I use a nonjudgmental, weight-neutral and gender inclusive approach, to help all people realize that food can and does mean so much more than just the nutrients on the plate, and empower them that having a normalized relationship with food is possible. I believe in utilizing an all foods fit mentality to neutralize from the notion of “good” or “bad” foods. I specialize in working with adults, but can provide referrals to other providers who work with children or adolescents, upon request.
