Nutritionists and Dietitians in Arlington County, VA

I believe food does so much more than fuel our bodies. Eating brings families together, creates memories, tells stories, and adds to our experiences in life. For many people, food can hold a lot of power and can be a significant source of fear, stress, and anxiety. I strive to empower my clients to rediscover enjoyment in eating by helping them improve their relationship with food and their body.

I’ve struggled with food throughout most of my life. Most of us do. No matter what I did, I always felt like I was putting so much energy into eating in a way that would “work” for me or that would finally make me feel confident in my body, but it all ended up making me feel so lost and unsafe instead. If any of this sounds familiar, believe that I know the struggle all too well; although I now sit on the other side of it. No more restrictions, no more so-called “lifestyle changes” - just stability. Being able to enjoy the foods that I truly love without second-guessing it, without the fear that I’ll “over-indulge”.

My ideal client struggles with chronic dieting, disordered eating, and body image concerns, and is ready to make peace with food and find a peaceful, productive relationship with their body.
