How many diets have you tried and quit? What if I told you that it wasn’t you failing the diet, but the diet failing YOU? Many of us grew up believing that thin equals healthy, and that sticking to rigid rules around eating and moving would lead to happiness and success. But in reality, sticking to food rules creates stronger and stronger cravings, feelings of powerlessness or guilt, and disconnection from the body’s signals of hunger, fullness, thirst, and more! Dieting can even lead to total loss of control, binge eating, and shame spirals. To heal a chaotic relationship with food, the first step is understand this cycle.
I help people who have battled with food, anxiety, and how they feel about themselves to discover their strength and beauty in their body. As a Health at Every Size (HAES) therapist & nutritionist, my clients develop a healthier relationship with themselves through intuitive eating and joyful movement. Accessing your body’s wisdom is a basic human right.
You deserve to enjoy your life and the body you're in right now. I’m here to help you experiment with what’s helpful, ditch the guilt and fear and set some new intentions behind self-care. Sessions may be virtual; no need to leave the house! If you’re ready to start feeling more pride in your body, contact me today for a free 20-minute phone consultation.
