I am a Registered Dietitian offering virtual nutrition counseling to people desiring a healthy relationship with food. I have expertise as a dietitian in various outpatient and treatment center settings helping people who struggle with eating disorders, disordered eating, body image issues, and much more. I use a compassionate and unconventional approach to help you apply evidenced-based nutritional practices to create a life free of food worry. I will not pressure you to count Calories, lose weight, or engage in any behaviors that often contribute to increased anxiety and shame around food or body image. Appointments with me will not just include trouble shooting for meal planning. I also work with individuals to find the root of their food distress by incorporating compliments of therapeutic counseling techniques including CBT, ACT, DBT, FBT, and somatic interventions. For the past decade, I have focused my nutrition training and practice on working in mental health spaces including substance abuse, general mental health, & eating disorders. Additionally, I have experience teaching various university courses to undergraduate Nutrition and Dietetics students paving the way for future generations of dietitians. If you are ready to shift your perspective of yourself and food, I invite you to work with me.
