I'd love to work with you if you're struggling with an eating disorder, feeling overwhelmed or out of control around food, or stuck in “analysis paralysis” about what to actually feed yourself to manage a health condition like diabetes or high cholesterol. Perhaps you’ve dieted on and off for years and you’re over it - you want to figure out how to nourish your body without counting and measuring your food and living by the number on the scale. You want anxieties about your body and food to take up less space in your brain so you can focus on what really matters to you.
