About
Through my private practice, I aim to educate, inspire, and empower others to make diet and lifestyle choices that help them feel their best. By working with me, you can expect 1-on-1 counseling that is tailored specifically to address your health needs and goals. As a runner and former Division I athlete, I'm particularly interested in helping individuals overcome some of the negative aspects of sport including disordered eating habits, body image struggles, under fueling, chronic bone fractures, and amenorrhea, so they can be more successful over the long term and find more joy in movement.
Another focus area of my practice is helping individuals make peace with food and pursue health in a way that is sustainable, balanced, and enjoyable. If you're caught in a dieting cycle or feel like you can't control yourself around various foods, let's work together to find your equilibrium. Restriction is not necessary. "Normal eating" is possible!
I also provide general nutritional counseling, nutrition counseling for prevention and management of chronic disease, and strategies for meal planning and grocery shopping. I can't wait to meet you and support you on your health journey!
