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.
