It is not often we are encouraged to honor our bodies needs. We live in world that teaches us to "watch it" and "have it together", especially around weight and food. Unfortunately, this constant pressure to "be good" can play a role in constant dieting, restricting, binging, purging and an all or nothing attitude around exercise. Fortunately, we can make peace with food and our bodies again. My approach of somatic nutrition therapy and coaching teaches intuitive eating and body wisdom skills to learn to trust our bodies again.

My practice focuses on helping those that have found their health beginning to decline in middle age. Often, their provider is urging them to start medications because of concerning labs. Many wonder if there is better way to improve their health through diet and lifestyle. The answer is: yes, definitely! I enjoy sharing with my clients which diet and lifestyle changes are backed by the latest research and are worth their time and effort to pursue. I patiently coach clients, with their individual needs and preferences in mind, until goals become healthy habits that stick.

By connecting the mind and heart, I create individualized programs that support physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
