I am a Registered Dietitian specializing in disordered eating, Intuitive Eating, and sports nutrition. I’ve worked in a variety of settings including collegiate athletics, professional sports, and private practice. I aim to help you find freedom from food rules and restriction and I help active individuals fuel their bodies without obsession. I believe all bodies are good and everyone deserves respect, care, and acceptance. You are the expert of you. I am here to support you and help you figure out what feels best for you, in your body.
My nutrition coaching incorporates Intuitive Eating principles and focuses on health-promoting behaviors. I typically ask a lot of questions, offer support and encouragement, provide facts and so much more. One way to think about it is therapy focused on food, nutrition, and body.
There are so many reasons why we choose the foods we do, behave the way we do, and engage in certain behaviors and not others. That’s a LOT to unpack and cannot be done in a single session. It’s important to develop a good rapport with me as your dietitian and that we are a good fit for one another, as you would a therapist.
