If you’re struggling with an eating disorder, it’s likely that you’ve felt trapped by rigid rules and limitations surrounding food. I also know that this challenge can become even more complicated if you’re dealing with co-occurring conditions like MCAS, PCOS, POTS, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, autoimmune disease, food allergies and intolerances, GI disorders, or you experience neurodivergence such as OCD, ADHD, or ASD. When we work together, you won’t be met with judgment or one-size-fits-all advice. You’ll be met with curiosity, compassion, and care that’s grounded in science and true collaboration. You are not just part of this world.
