Services Offered

  • Nutrition counseling is a supportive, collaborative process in which a registered dietitian will assess a client’s nutritional needs, develop mutually agreed upon goals, provide nutrition education when needed and create individualized care plans to foster self-care, growth, and autonomy throughout treatment.

    In sessions with me, you can expect the following:

    • A confidential and judgement-free space for you to talk through your eating and body image concerns

    • Discuss, challenge and navigate any nutrition- and body image-related beliefs that may be impacting your decisions around food

    • Personalized nutrition recommendations, education and support focused on developing lifelong behaviors that improve each client’s physical, mental and emotional well-being

    While my work with each client is highly personalized, below are some of the guiding principles that set the foundation for my approach to nutrition counseling.

    Health at Every Size®

    Intuitive Eating

  • As a weight-inclusive dietitian and a member of the Association for Size Diversity and Health (ASDAH), I am committed to the practice of Health at Every Size® (HAES®) in my approach to eating disorder treatment.

    When working with me for treatment of an eating disorder, I do not follow a one-size-fits-all approach, but rather, aim to genuinely understand the unique needs of each client to best support them in their journey towards recovery.

    I work in collaboration with each member of a client’s treatment team, which involves a medical provider (such as a primary care physician, pediatrician, or nurse practitioner), psychotherapist, and of course, their families and other caregivers. Sessions can be individual or family-based to ensure all persons involved can have a supportive role in a client’s journey towards recovery.

  • Gastrointestinal disturbances are highly common in individuals with eating disorders and disordered eating and are often misdiagnosed as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) rather than being identified as a side effect of an eating disorder. In turn, individuals may start to think they should further avoid certain foods, further perpetuating and reinforcing disordered eating habits. In other cases, individuals may be newly diagnosed with a gastrointestinal condition which medically requires elimination of certain foods. When individuals are not supported by a registered dietitian during this process, it becomes extremely overwhelming and naturally creates fear, anxiety, and stress around food, and potentially the development of an eating disorder.

    Whether you are experiencing digestive issues as a side effect of an eating disorder or are newly diagnosed with a gastrointestinal condition, I am here to help you navigate this complex arena all while aiming to improve your relationship with food and your body.
