I help women who are already carrying the world on their shoulders prioritize their health once again. By focusing on our relationship with food and our bodies, in addition to overall nutrition, we quite literally bring joy back to the table. No more food anxiety, guilt, and shame. Nourishment, not punishment is my mantra. I support individuals with a variety of concerns including eating disorders, disordered eating, body image struggles, yo-yo dieting, nutrition support with weight loss medications (GLP-1s), blood sugar management, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, gut health, prenatal and postpartum support.

I focus on helping clients develop habits supporting their individual goals, whether seeking weight loss, preparing for a race, or struggling with gastrointestinal issues. Recognizing there is no single approach to nutrition or health, I meet clients where they are & help identify not only ways to adjust dietary intake but also practical ways in which to do so. I have a background working with a team of medical providers (physicians, psychologists, exercise physiologists) & therefore have a strong commitment to viewing the "whole" individual, & taking that into consideration with any goals or plans we develop.

My ideal clients are adults who feel stuck in all-or-nothing patterns with food, weight, or health habits. They’re often tired of diets, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or struggling to stay consistent with routines like eating well, sleeping better, or moving regularly. I help by breaking change into small, realistic steps. Together, we create personalized, flexible habits that fit their life so they can build consistency, confidence, and sustainable progress over time.

Every person deserves to have a peaceful relationship with food and their body, and I love helping my clients get there (while acknowledging the systems that limit it for many of us). By combining mindfulness principles with integrative/functional nutrition and meeting yourself where you’re at, we can create slow, sustainable, realistic changes that support YOUR personal body. This is nutrition for EVERY body, full-circle. If you’re ready to stop constantly thinking about food, obsessing over ingredients, counting calories, and feeling frequent guilt/shame about your food choices/body, I’d LOVE to help you!

I believe food does so much more than fuel our bodies. Eating brings families together, creates memories, tells stories, and adds to our experiences in life. For many people, food can hold a lot of power and can be a significant source of fear, stress, and anxiety. I strive to empower my clients to rediscover enjoyment in eating by helping them improve their relationship with food and their body.
