Alice Baker
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Nutritionist
Our practice is fiercely committed to empowering individuals towards recovery from disordered eating, freedom with food, and contentment in their body.
Do you feel consumed by thoughts of food and your body? Do you feel stuck in patterns of restriction, chronic dieting, bingeing, purging and/or exhausting exercise? Do you long for freedom with food and to feel content in your body but fear what that might look like? Do you long for freedom and vitality and feel held back? If so, you are in the right place and I would love to come alongside you! A little about me, I have 27+ years experience in the field of Eating Disorders and have served clients with eating disorders through the full spectrum of care. I currently see clients in virtual private practice, facilitate support groups, present locally and nationally, and provide consultation to new professionals in the eating disorder field. If you have found yourself here, know that you are not alone. I practice from a anti-diet, weight inclusive paradigm and am fiercely committed to empowering individuals towards recovery from disordered eating, freedom with food, and contentment in their body. Your body is not the problem, diet culture is.
