As a Nutrition Therapist, my goal is to repair, rebuild and restore you back to health by teaching you how to renourish yourself mind, body and spirit, verses just teaching you how to eat. In most cases, successful nutrition therapy is not a "quick-fix". My role is to have a clear understanding of your goals and to work with you step-by-step in helping you to achieve them. I have a collaborative approach focusing on progress not perfection and believe in using the food plan that best fits you.

From a place of compassion and personal experience, I help people find peace in their relationship with food and body. Whether you have a diagnosed eating disorder or you are trapped in the diet-binge cycle, I can help you find freedom and develop confidence in yourself and comfort in your body. I utilize the power of behavior science and evidence-based nutrition to coach you out of your limiting and critical mindset so that you confidently navigate the world of diet culture and misinformation as you learn to fuel yourself, enjoy food, and be your best self.

I have been a Registered Dietitian for over 10 years, working mostly in clinical, and community outpatient settings. I have in depth experience with gastrointestinal disorders, diabetes, and heart health. After becoming a dietitian, I realized making a change is so much deeper than just “will power” and I developed fiery passion to help people navigate change through balance, which then lead me to have a passion for counseling people with disordered eating/eating disorders.

If you are struggling to cultivate a peaceful relationship with food, please know that you are not alone. Conflicting messages telling us how to eat, what to eat, and when to eat can make us wonder why eating has gotten so complicated. The short answer: it does not have to be. Whether you have been diagnosed with an eating disorder, suffer from disordered eating, or just want to know how to nourish your body without going on another diet, I can help.
