Initial Assessment
This session includes an in-depth nutrition assessment to better understand your health history, relationship with food, and discuss your individual nutritional needs. During this time we will discuss the next steps to help you achieve your goals.
Follow-up Nutrition Counseling Sessions
These sessions are essential for developing skills and receiving strategies to help you improve your relationship with food and body. At each appointment, I will evaluate progress, answer questions, and help establish new goals.
Discovery Call
This is an opportunity to ask any questions and discuss personal goals and what you hope to get from the appointment.
Areas of Specialty
Eating Disorder Recovery
Eating disorders are a serious but treatable medical condition that meets specific diagnostic criteria. They can be life-threatening, especially if not treated. Through nutrition therapy, we will work toward the end goal of eating intuitively and healing your relationship with food and body.
Pediatrics
Setting a firm foundation of a healthy relationship with food and body as a child is essential. While I am a strong advocate for food neutrality and body positivity, I also work with kids in a variety of areas requiring dietitian services. Other areas include food allergies/intolerances, picky eating help, and tube feeding support, to name a few.
Body Image Healing
The majority of people are unsatisfied with their weight. Diet culture creates a false narrative that we must look a specific way to be accepted and healthy. However, all bodies are worthy of respect, care, and acceptance exactly as they are. The world we live in tells us there is one way to have a body, and that all other bodies are less acceptable and should be striving for the “ideal.” Instead, we will work to heal from the inside out by providing you with the tools you need to have a healthy relationship with your body.
Disordered Eating/Chronic Dieting
Disordered eating and eating disorders, although often used interchangeably, represent different positions on the spectrum of eating behaviors. An eating disorder, such as anorexia nervosa or bulimia, is diagnosed based on specific criteria and involves severe disruptions in eating behaviors, often coupled with intense concerns about body weight and shape. Disordered eating, on the other hand, encompasses a range of irregular eating behaviors that may not qualify for an eating disorder diagnosis. Between these two lies “normal eating,” which involves eating when hungry, stopping when full, and not being overly concerned with food or body image. It's marked by flexibility and the ability to rely on internal cues rather than external rules. Together we can work on the journey from disordered eating towards "normal eating", focusing on unlearning external rules and reconnecting with the body's internal signals.
Frequently Asked Questions
At this time all appointments are held virtually through a HIPPA-compliant, secure platform.
We do not file insurance claims (this allows us to keep our fees lower), and are considered out of network with all insurance companies. We can provide you with a detailed superbill (medical receipt) upon request after each session, which you may submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.
Yes. That is because when you make an appointment that time is set aside specifically for you. Failure to attend is a loss for yourself and limits opportunities for other clients. A minimum of 24 hours’ notice during business hours is required to cancel or reschedule a session. Cancellations or reschedules with less than 24 hours notice will insure a late notice fee of 50%. This is payable before further appointments can be made.
