Behavior Modification Nutritionists and Dietitians in Illinois

Hi, I'm Stephanie! I’m a Health at Every Size aligned dietitian specializing in eating disorder recovery, intuitive eating, and weight neutral medical nutrition therapy. I work with clients to develop an individualized nourishment plan based on their hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues – without relying on external factors like calorie counting or food restriction to guide eating. I believe that food should be satisfying, fun, and easy. I believe that wellness should be accessible to everyone. And I believe that people in all bodies deserve respectful, compassionate care.

Many of my clients come to me wanting to reduce body fat after having seemingly tried everything and still not been able to maintain their goals. They want to achieve food freedom and maximize their mental and physical health but aren't exactly sure how to do it.

Are you tired of trying multiple styles of eating and feel overwhelmed by the massive amount of information telling you to eat a certain way? Perhaps you feel anxious and uncertain about what foods are best for you and which ones to avoid. Imagine being able to see a "blueprint" of the foods and lifestyle choices that are EXACTLY what your body needs. By looking at your genetics, we are able to work together to design a truly PERSONALIZED plan that cuts out the guess work saving time and money and really setting you up to THRIVE!

Whether you grew up listening to your mom pick apart her body, or your grandparents and aunties offering you all your favorite foods, while also commenting on your body, or scrolling through social media only to find that next diet or "wellness" influencer. You were always trying to fit in by shrinking yourself to take up less space, labeling food and yourself as "good," "bad," or "unworthy," and counting calories only to shame yourself for going over. You’re wanting to reclaim your health and body through an intuitive approach. I'm here to help guide you in embracing your identity and living out your truest self.

With the right treatment and support, your symptoms can be alleviated naturally and relief can be yours sooner rather than later.

Are you struggling with one or more life-disrupting symptoms that have been dismissed by other medical providers, despite being on one or more medications? As a DNA-Focused Nutritionist, let me help you use food as medicine, in customized, realistic steps! I add a functional nutrition approach, with herbs and supplements as needed, to discover the root cause of symptoms and develop a personalized plan that evolves with you while you optimize your health.

Are you stuck bingeing or overeating, thinking about food 24/7, feeling stuck with food guilt & shame, or struggle with negative body image thoughts? I'm a Registered Dietitian and before I discovered Intuitive Eating, I never thought a "normal" relationship with food was possible. I thought I would always be fighting cravings, bingeing, constantly thinking about food, and hating my body. Everywhere I turned for guidance, I was told I just needed to have more discipline and self control. I was trapped in this cycle for 10+ years and desperate for a way out. If this is YOU, I want you to know you are not alone and there is a way out.
