I am a trauma-informed, weight-inclusive dietitian specialized in all kinds of disordered eating - anorexia, binge-eating, bulimia, OSFED (previously EDNOS), compulsive eating, and chronic dieting. It's never just about the food - our eating is often complicated by life stressors, mental health, medical conditions and more. I have a heart for working with clients who have struggled to feel heard by their medical professionals in the past and need someone willing to actually listen to their needs and symptoms (instead of writing them off based on assumptions about their weight or diagnoses).

Welcome! It can be extremely difficult to find quality nutrition guidelines to inform your own healthcare decisions. Research in nutrition continues to advance each day, and we are continuously learning more about the complex ways food interacts with human health. This can be overwhelming and confusing, especially when public messaging changes so quickly. Rapidly changing health messaging mixed with the strong and ever present diet culture we live in can make finding and applying sound nutrition practices incredibly difficult. When folks do seek out professionals to help, it can be difficult to find inclusive care.

My ideal clients struggle with weight loss due to a lack of knowledge, support, or time. Many feel overwhelmed by daily responsibilities, leading to inconsistent habits and frustration with plateaus or regains. They need personalized guidance, accountability, and practical strategies, such as realistic meal ideas and portion control. Many seek help overcoming emotional eating and staying consistent during stress. Their goals include improving health, reducing meds, living pain-free, and reaching "one-derland" (under 200 lbs).

My ideal client experiences anxiety around what to eat, when to eat and how much to eat. They have lost touch with their internal hunger and fullness ques and question what "normal" eating is. They want to stop thinking about food all the time so that they have more space to live their life. They want to be able to spontaneously go out to eat with friends or prepare a balanced breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They want to feel comfortable in their skin and at their meals.

Nutrition Coaching Nutritionists and Dietitians
How does nutrition coaching work?
Nutrition coaching works by providing personalized guidance to individuals aiming to improve their dietary habits and overall wellbeing. Nutrition coaches tend to take a holistic approach, addressing not only nutrition but also physical and emotional health. They help clients develop tailored nutrition plans that fit their lifestyle and health goals, educate them on how diet impacts physical and mental health, and offer ongoing support and accountability to keep them on track. However, given the varied educational backgrounds and credentialing of nutrition coaches, it's essential for clients to inquire about a coach's specific qualifications and approach to ensure they find the right fit for their needs.

Who should see a nutrition coach?
Nutrition coaching is ideal for individuals who are generally healthy but seek to make gradual lifestyle changes to enhance their physical and mental health. It is also suitable for those interested in preventing chronic diseases, especially if they are predisposed to conditions like diabetes or hypertension. However, nutrition coaching may not be the best fit for individuals with specific diet-related medical conditions, as these cases often require the expertise of a Registered Dietitian or other healthcare professional with more advanced training and credentials in dietetics.

What is the difference between a dietitian and a nutrition coach?
The terms "nutrition coach" and "dietitian" might seem synonymous, but there are significant credential differences between these roles. A registered dietitian (RD) or registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) must earn at least a graduate degree from an accredited program, complete a supervised practice program, pass the Commission on Dietetic Registration exam, and engage in continuing education. These credentials are regulated by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the largest nutrition-related organization in the country. In contrast, the title "nutrition coach" does not require any formal education or credentials; anyone can use the title, including those with minimal or no formal training in nutrition. While there are certification programs for nutrition coaches, the rigor and academic requirements for these programs can vary widely.

What does a nutrition coaching session involve?
Nutrition coaching sessions are tailored to a client's individual goals, so sessions generally involve the nutrition coach assisting the client in ensuring they are making progress toward these goals. Sessions typically involve reviewing food and exercise journals from the past week, setting new goals for upcoming sessions, and providing personalized feedback. Nutrition coaches will also educate clients on diet-related topics, such as ensuring adequate fruit and vegetable intake, or they may offer practical resources like recipes or mindful eating exercises to try on their own. Generally, the focus of these sessions is on creating sustainable lifestyle changes that support overall health and wellbeing.
