Eating is complex and personal. Eating can be joyful and nourishing or filled with conflict and pain from past experiences, sometimes passed down through generations. Aside from our individual and family history, our culture and often the world of health care can be harsh and stigmatizing about matters of size and shape and lead people to be in a constant battle with their bodies. Further, the world of nutrition and healthy eating advice can be full of contradiction, misinformation, and rigidity. Finally, any sort of physical issue or illness affected by eating behavior and food choices make it hard to know how to eat to be well.

My ideal clients are adult women and teenage athletes who sense something is off — their skin, energy, hormones, or performance isn't where it should be. Many are also thinking longer term, about longevity and healthspan, and how the choices they make now shape how they feel and function for decades to come. They're ready to look deeper, and I help them do that through a functional, integrative approach that gets specific to them — not a generic plan, but a real strategy built around their whole picture.

After more than 30 years in the field, my passion for nutrition continues. Seeing a client find relief from pain and exhaustion is a joy! Plus, I can relate to their desperation to get their life back. In 2005 I put my knowledge of nutrition to the test when, two weeks after invasive back surgery I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Shortly afterwards I discovered multiple food allergies. Once those were removed I stopped three prescription medications and feel better than I had in years. I absolutely love bringing that relief to clients!

Struggling through years of restrictive dieting and self-doubt, I know firsthand how exhausting the weight loss cycle can be. The frustration of doing “everything right” yet feeling stuck led me to question not just my habits—but the entire approach to nutrition.
That experience shaped my path as a dietitian. Today, I combine evidence-based nutrition science with a deep understanding of the emotional and behavioral patterns that influence how we eat. I believe lasting change doesn’t come from rigid rules or short-term fixes, but from building a sustainable, balanced relationship with food.

For nearly 10 years, my body rebelled against my conventional low-fat, convenience food diet with IBS, intense anxiety, constant cravings, and chronic knee pain (all before the age of 25!). It wasn't until I learned about the healing power of a real food, anti-inflammatory diet and discovered some food sensitivities that I saw a dramatic relief in my digestive and joint symptoms, plus an improvement in how my brain functioned. Now, I am passionate about helping others find their own relief, breakthroughs, and successes in their journey of healing using simple, nutritious foods!
