My ideal clients are people ready to take an active role in their health — often dealing with chronic or nerve-related pain, headaches, an injury that hasn't fully healed, or the physical toll of stress and poor sleep.

Hi, I'm Brenna! I work with adolescents, teens and adults who are struggling with disordered eating, recovery from chronic dieting, binge-restrict cycles, body image concerns and wanting to be able to pursue health without obsession. It's common to be interested in or passionate about food, health, wellness exercise - but when those interests become inflexible, or don't allow for you to spend time and feel present doing other things that are important to you, it can be a sign to reach out.
