Our approach
Health is not just your physical well-being, but also social and psychological well-being. Together, we can work towards self-acceptance and self-care while waving goodbye to the restraints of diet culture.
Eating disorders are not a knowledge problem. Most people who come to us already know a great deal about nutrition. What has been missing is a place to practice eating without judgment, and someone to hold the plan steady when the fear gets loud.
Through one-on-one nutrition counseling services, we provide trauma informed and weight inclusive care to those with:
Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating, OSFED, and ARFID
Patterns that run your day and take up way too much brain space.
Years of rules, cycles and starting over on Monday.
Diabetes, MCAS, POTS, high cholesterol, and more.
With nutrition counseling, we will work to discover the “why” behind your thoughts and behaviors.
During your initial session, we will dive into your medical & diet history, and identify your feelings & thoughts toward food and your body. We will set reachable goals with an action plan.
During follow-up sessions, we will challenge diet culture and nourish your body from a place of satisfaction and joy – not restriction. We utilize Intuitive Eating principles in sessions and work from a non-diet and Health At Every Size® approach.

We measure progress by flexibility, energy, freedom from rules, and what you’re able to do again. Weight loss is never a goal of our work, and care is never withheld or altered based on body size.
A brain and body that are undernourished cannot function well. Early sessions focus on adequacy and regularity, because consistent nourishment is what makes the the rest of the work possible.
Harm reduction means we meet you where you are rather than where a protocol says you should be. We hold the direction; you set the speed, and we take it one step at a time.
Sessions are a conversation, not an audit. We look at what eating actually looked like since we last met, what got in the way, and what might be worth trying next. You will not be handed a list of rules and sent away to follow it.
Meal plans are one tool among several. Sometimes structure quiets the noise early on; sometimes it feeds the rules. We decide together, and when we use one it’s a scaffold to lean on while your own hunger and fullness cues come back online.
Weights are taken only when clinically necessary and never without discussing it first. Closed weights are available, numbers are not shared unless you ask, and you can decline.
Nutrition is one seat at the table. With your written consent we stay in contact with your therapist and physician so everyone is on the same page, and we can refer you to clinicians we trust if you’re still building a team.
