I am a Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist with 6 years of counseling experience. I studied Clinical Dietetics at Michigan State University where I completed my undergraduate education, and Grand Valley State University where I completed my internship and master's. I specialize in working with individuals who have chronic gut health issues, disordered eating, weight management concerns, chronic inflammation, and even those who struggle with gut-brain axis issues and are looking for dietary solutions to improve mental well-being. If you struggle with IBS, IBD, poor gut health from yo-yo dieting, chronic bloating, disordered eating, and anything in between I’m here to help. I also love working with those who are looking to get to their healthy, happy weight without restriction and I lean heavily on HAES (health at every size) principles. Outside of my work with clients, I love to cook and develop recipes for myself and my clients. I'm also a big singer, knitter, reader, and gardener, and you can find me exploring new ways to enjoy the outdoors and embracing the seasons here in the Midwest.
"Whether your goal is to manage your weight, heal your relationship with food, or heal your gut, I'm here to help! My nutrition philosophy centers around the idea that less is more when it comes to restricting foods that may be causing your symptoms or poorly impacting your health. All foods fit, and together we can find the balance between foods that heal with an emphasis on maintaining a healthy mindset around food so you can live free of symptoms and feel good from the inside, out."
