I help people rebuild trust with food, eating, and their bodies without shame, rigid food rules, or weight-focused care. My work is grounded in a non-diet, weight-inclusive, and trauma-informed approach, with a focus on eating disorders, disordered eating, ADHD, PCOS, body image, and intuitive eating.
Many of my clients come to me feeling exhausted by food noise, guilt around eating, inconsistent hunger cues, or the pressure to “get it right.” Together, we work toward steadier nourishment, more flexibility, and a relationship with food that feels less consuming and more supportive.

I believe having a healthy relationship with food is the key to attaining any nutritional goal. People are born with the ability to maintain health and weight without following strict diets. The body and the brain work together sending rich messages back and forth enabling us to sustain health while feeling satisfied. Over time many of us stop listening to our bodies. We impose rules and make judgments about the foods we eat distorting our relationship with food and our bodies. By restoring the natural body mind connection and gaining factual nutrition knowledge, you can be the healthy person you were born to be.

I want to start by saying that working on your health and wellness takes time. Society has programmed us into thinking that things should happen quickly. This way of thinking has put a lot of pressure on us and then we feel bad about ourselves when it doesn’t happen that way. Working on our health and wellness is a lifelong journey. I use Clinical Nutrition to support the whole body including (but not limited to) digestion, fatigue, inflammation, and mental health. I also help people develop a better relationship with food.
