I help women heal their relationship with food and recover from disordered eating and eating disorders using a compassionate, non-diet, intuitive eating approach. Many of the women I work with struggle with food guilt, restrictive eating, binge eating, body image concerns, and chronic dieting. Food and weight can feel mentally consuming, leaving little energy for the rest of life. My goal is to help you quiet the food noise, rebuild trust with your body, and feel more at ease and confident around eating.

I'm Kelly, a registered dietitian who specializes in chronic dieting, disordered eating, eating disorders, body image, mental health and addiction. If you've found yourself in a cycle of chronic dieting, calorie counting, over exercise or avoidance of social gatherings involving food, I can help. What we eat is so much more than what we have access to or time for- it speaks to early food culture in our home, our mental health, what we've been made to believe via social media etc. A healthy relationship with food and body is possible for everyone.
