If you struggle with a complicated relationship with food—whether through restriction, bingeing, or constant stress about eating—you may feel frustrated and overwhelmed. For more than 20 years, I’ve walked alongside people just like you who want freedom from food rules, guilt, and shame. What you really want is peace: to feel confident eating without second-guessing, to trust your body, and to focus on living your life rather than battling your plate. Your goal may be better health, but also to rebuild confidence, self-compassion, and balance in a way that lasts.

A recent study showed that the average American has gained 16 pounds during COVID. With each unhealthy increase in BMI you are likely not feeling your best and are putting yourself at risk for chronic diseases. If you are having trouble keeping a healthy weight and unsure of what to eat? Maybe you feel like you are doing everything right, but still aren't seeing the results you want. If you have tried "diets" but find yourself frustrated, let's try a different approach.

I am NOT here to be the food police, or tell you everything you are doing wrong with your eating. I started KT Nutrition with the goal of helping my clients challenge their negative beliefs about food in order to reestablish a healthy relationship with their own body. Our body is our most powerful ally in determining what and how much we need to eat, and unfortunately modern diet culture attempts to sever this relationship with shakes, pills, and other unhelpful "lifestyle changes". I believe that we reach our own optimal health and happiness when we are in tune with what our body needs, not what society tells us it needs.
