My ideal client struggles with disordered eating, emotional eating, or medical nutrition issues like diabetes or gastrointestinal problems. They feel overwhelmed by food choices, guilt, or body image concerns. Their goal is to regain control over their eating habits, heal their relationship with food, and manage their health without restrictive diets. They seek clarity, structure, and emotional support to develop a sustainable, balanced approach to nutrition that improves both their mental and physical well-being
I specialize in eating disorders, emotional eating, and medical nutrition therapy. I provide personalized strategies, such as meal planning and food prep guidance, tailored to each client’s emotional and physical needs. My approach helps clients build a healthier relationship with food and manage medical conditions with compassionate, practical care.
I understand how challenging it can be to navigate food-related struggles, especially when they feel overwhelming. My goal is to offer empathetic, non-judgmental support while providing the tools for lasting change. If you’re ready to work toward a healthier relationship with food and your body, I invite you to reach out.
