Background

Intuitive Eating & Eating Disorder Dietitian

I’m a non-diet registered dietitian who helps clients heal their relationship with food, body, and exercise — without restriction, rigid rules, or guilt.

If you’re exhausted by dieting, stuck in food thoughts, or feeling disconnected from your body, you’re not alone. My work centers on helping you rebuild trust with your body through a compassionate, evidence-based approach rooted in intuitive eating and body image healing.

I specialize in:

  • Chronic dieting & weight cycling 
  • Disordered eating & eating disorder recovery (outpatient support) 
  • Body image concerns 
  • Emotional eating 
  • Exercise relationship repair

I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Dietetics and Dietetic Internship at Iowa State University. In my practice, I combine clinical nutrition expertise with a gentle, individualized approach so you can feel nourished, supported, and empowered — not judged.

I’ve worked with hundreds of women ready to step away from diet culture and build a more peaceful, sustainable way of eating. Together, we focus on practical skills, mindset shifts, and body respect so you can create space in your life for what truly matters.

Outside of sessions, I’m a mom of three who loves time outdoors, messy kitchen experiments, and family time.

If you’re ready to stop fighting your body and start caring for it, I’d love to work with you.
