Are you tired of hearing about new diets and ways to eat (or not eat) everywhere you look? What if I told you diets don't work? What if I told you food is fuel? I believe nutritional counseling could give you the tools you need to eat for health, energy, wellness, and joy.

Your goals echo a desire to mend your relationship with food and exercise with alignment that is rooted in internal trust and understanding, not external validation. True healing and happiness can't be found in another diet; it's an embodied journey back to self—safety and self-compassion intertwined.
