I have over 20 years of specialized training and experience working with individuals with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, compulsive exercise, body image concerns, and disordered eating.
I’m a Registered Dietitian based in Brooklyn. I provide nutrition therapy to support my clients in their journey to heal their relationship with food, body and self. Through a non-diet and body inclusive lens, we will explore how diet culture and other harmful messaging have shaped your relationship with food and body, to bring understand and neutrality to these relationships. We will set realistic goals for behavioral changes necessary to support you in your recovery. Together, we will identify and address the barriers and/or rules that exist around your eating experience to navigate toward honoring your natural, internal cues.

You're told to "just lose weight" to improve your symptoms, yet you've tried every diet in the book. You're lost on what is actually happening in your body. And, you are craving guidance!

Can you relate to the following? You’re preoccupied with thinking about what you’ve eaten and what you’ll eat later. You obsess over what you can and can’t let yourself have. You don’t keep sweets or chips at home because you fear you’ll eat them all. You’re frustrated with feeling uncomfortable in your body and always feel that you are fighting against it. You’re tired of dieting, but don’t know how else to eat... I know what you’re going through. I’ve been there myself and I have worked with hundreds of people to help them develop healthy relationships with food and their bodies.

Eating Disorders Nutritionists and Dietitians
What are the most common types of eating disorders?
The most common types of eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). Individuals may also be diagnosed with "other specified feeding or eating disorder" (OSFED), which is a type of eating disorder diagnosed when a client does not meet the full criteria for anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating disorder but still experiences significant distress related to eating.

What diet is best for eating disorder recovery?
Because eating disorders vary widely in symptoms and severity, there is no single best diet for recovery. While not all individuals with eating disorders are underweight and require weight gain during recovery, those who do may particularly benefit from consuming balanced meals on a more structured schedule. This approach helps establish a regular eating pattern and regulate hunger cues. In general, eating disorder dietitians recommend that clients focus on improving their overall relationship with food and eliminating certain "food rules," while also ensuring they consume an appropriate amount. For example, clients with anorexia nervosa often have significant fears surrounding the consumption of high-calorie foods; dietitians may encourage these clients to include such foods in their diet in a balanced manner to help facilitate recovery and achieve a more normalized state of eating. Conversely, clients with bulimia or binge eating disorder may benefit from a diet that avoids foods that are particularly triggering for them to binge on. Many clients with eating disorders benefit from seeing a dietitian who specializes in eating disorders in order to ensure that their diet meets their specific recovery-related needs.

How are eating disorders treated?
Eating disorder treatment often involves a multidisciplinary team of clinicians working together to address the various aspects of the condition. A physician typically monitors physical changes and health problems, a therapist addresses underlying thoughts and emotions, and a dietitian develops a plan to help the patient achieve and maintain a healthy weight. While most individuals can be treated in an outpatient setting, some may require more intensive care provided by residential or inpatient facilities. In addition, early intervention for disordered eating can significantly increase the likelihood of a successful recovery, and ongoing support and monitoring are also crucial to prevent relapse and sustain progress.

How do dietitians help people with eating disorders?
Nutrition counseling is a crucial component of eating disorder recovery, and dietitians play a vital role in this process. They help clients develop personalized meal plans to meet their nutritional goals, which is particularly beneficial for those who need to gain weight after periods of food restriction. Dietitians also encourage healthier eating patterns by helping clients incorporate foods they may have previously avoided due to eating disorder behaviors. Additionally, eating disorder dietitians often collaborate with other members of the client's care team, such as medical doctors, psychiatrists, and therapists, to provide comprehensive support. This multidisciplinary approach is especially important for clients with medical conditions related to their eating disorder, such as heart issues or electrolyte imbalances, which require close supervision by a medical doctor in coordination with a dietitian.
