My ideal client is someone who has wrestled with finding a healthy relationship with food. I love working with people who feel confused about what information is correct, who feel lost or unsure where to go with their nutrition journey, or who feel like they're stuck in a cycle. I also love working with young athletes whose aim is to perform their best and take care of their nutrition to fuel their play.

Have you been told to eat "healthier" or more "balanced" but are unsure of what that looks like? Or are you struggling with how to eat to manage a medical condition? There is a lot of information out there that can be confusing and hard to apply. Not only that but changing what and how you eat can be hard work in the midst of all that life throws at you! If you're interested in personalized, evidence-based nutrition help you've come to the right place.

If you're feeling confused and frustrated in a world focused on weight loss and diets that never seem to work, you're not alone. Many of my clients struggle with feeling like food dominates their thoughts and their life. By working together, my clients go from feeling tired, anxious, and misunderstood, to finally feeling healthy, happy, and confident in their body and their food choices. If you're ready to reduce stress around mealtimes and get back to enjoying the foods and activities you once loved, let's take the first step together. Together, we'll determine the best way of eating for YOU, not what the latest diet says.

Create a plan that is customized for you and your body, find confidence that you’re making the right food choices, and start to feel your personal best!

Are you tired and frustrated with trying to lose the weight and keep it off? Battling belly weight, feeling deprived, out of control and unsuccessful at dieting? Weight loss and feeling good shouldn’t be so hard. It’s likely no one has helped you personalize a plan that works for your body in your life. That’s the difference between success and failure. A plan that’s built for you and your life. That’s what we build together. I’m passionate about helping those to overcome these challenges so that they can experience more energy, sense of calm optimism and, of course, lose weight.

You deserve a peaceful, respectful relationship with your body, a natural, enjoyable relationship with food, and a sustainable, joyful relationship with movement. If you are experiencing challenges or distress around the food you eat or the exercise you do (or do not do), you could benefit from nutrition support and intuitive eating guidance. If you are struggling with an eating disorder/disordered eating or are tired of cycling through diet after diet, you can expect to receive support that meets you where you are - together we can work towards full recovery.

Because of my own personal health journey, I empathize with people who feel trapped and worried that their health challenges have become the new normal. I support my clients and make their voices heard in order to tackle the health challenge head-on.

I want to start by saying that working on your health and wellness takes time. Society has programmed us into thinking that things should happen quickly. This way of thinking has put a lot of pressure on us and then we feel bad about ourselves when it doesn’t happen that way. Working on our health and wellness is a lifelong journey. I use Clinical Nutrition to support the whole body including (but not limited to) digestion, fatigue, inflammation, and mental health. I also help people develop a better relationship with food.

My ideal client struggles with chronic dieting, disordered eating, and body image concerns, and is ready to make peace with food and find a peaceful, productive relationship with their body. My clients want to feel empowered to intuitively care for and love their bodies- without dieting or restriction. There may also be concerns such as desire for weight loss, PCOS or a missing period, or metabolic concerns such as prediabetes or elevated cholesterol. Together, we find a path toward self-love and a guilt-free food relationship while focusing on your desired health goals.

We like to take a "whole body approach" to find what the root causes of your problems are. Once we establish this, we can then come up with a realistic meal plan that fits your lifestyle and needs.
