Registered Dietitian
Creating a compassionate, non-judgmental, empowering and weight inclusive/stigma free space is super important to me. LGBTQIA+ friendly!
Hi! Does food stress you out? Are you hurting from poor body image? Body image concerns and guilt/shame around food can make life totally miserable and even unbearable. If you want to eat without fear, guilt and shame holding you down, I want to help you. If you want to be okay with your body and experience the joys of life without being tormented by negative body image, I want to help you. I am so sorry for your suffering. I honor mental health as well as physical health. Mental health is health. You do not need to be underweight nor have an eating disorder in order to work with me. I have a Masters degree in Nutrition and Health Promotion, Eating Disorder Concentration as well as certification in Enhanced Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT-E), the leading evidenced-based adult treatment for eating disorders outpatient. I also have a certification in Religious Trauma Studies from the Global Center for Religious Research.
