Are you trying to eat healthier, lose weight, or improve your overall health? I help people make nutrition changes to lose weight, feel better, and improve their overall lifestyle by creating healthier eating habits. I do personalized weekly meal plans, give guidance on calories and protein, and give specific meal ideas to help you with your goals. I also help people who struggle with emotional eating, overeating, or binge eating. Together we can create a plan to implement lasting nutritional habits that help you balance food and nutrition with a healthy lifestyle.

Do you struggle with chronic dieting or an eating disorder? Do you want to heal your relationship with food and your body? 95% of diets fail, yet we blame ourselves rather than the diet for the failure. I will be on your team to help you challenge the thinking errors regarding food and body. A non-diet, intuitive eating approach will be used with all clientele. I also have expertise in helping those with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), celiac disease, diabetes, and digestive issues. I can provide dietary guidelines for these specific issues and help you adapt the guidelines to your current lifestyle.

I have a dedication to aid my clients in their journeys out of their eating disorders and beyond the toxic diet culture that pervades our society. I have experience working with anorexia, bulimia, orthorexia, OSFED, and disordered eating in ages 14+, and have a soft spot in my heart for teens and young adults. I work with clients who are ready for outpatient level of care including those recently discharged from residential treatment and/or those who are seeking help for the first time.

I am deeply passionate about your health and wellbeing. Whether you want to improve your relationship with your body, recover from disordered eating, or just live a healthier life, I've got you covered. Often, it’s your very best efforts to manage or control your eating or body that actually keep you stuck. The solution you need is sometimes very far removed from what you’ve already tried. If you’re sick of diet culture, tired of obsessing over your weight or what your body looks like, and ready for real change that actually feels good, give our office a call and we'll get things moving.

I have an extensive clinical background and have 16 years of experience using medical nutrition therapy to help people suffering from health conditions such as diabetes, disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, food allergies, and cancer. I have also helped many people learn to maintain a healthy weight through practical improvements in lifestyle and eating habits. I enjoy working with patients that are ready to have a better life through better nutrition.

My training in nutrition and behavioral health has taught me that there is no one size fit all plan to health and well-being. My approach is that your eating plan needs to match your lifestyle, food preferences, and health goals. Food touches every aspect of our lives, from our performance to how our bodies are feeling, to our behaviors with and around food. My ideal client is one that is ready to heal and to do the work necessary to get there. I am going to be there every step of the way to coach, cheerlead your efforts, and encourage you along the way.

My nutrition philosophy is that cultivating a healthy relationship with food allows us to better enjoy the best parts of life. Whether you have a health condition that has brought up questions about nutrition, or you are confused by fad diets and media telling you to starve your body and cut out food groups, or if you are just looking to feel better overall – you’re in the right place. Together, we can make sustainable plans and set attainable goals to get you where you want to be.

I love food. Helping others heal their relationship with food, stop the dangerous cycle of dieting and fad-based eating habits is my primary goal. Enjoy food, embrace health!
