Relieving yourself from the restraint of diet culture and disordered eating is scary. I’m hoping that if you’ve arrived at my about me page, you’re ready to take a leap and learn to live in alignment with your body.

As a dietitian, I believe that you are the expert of your own body. Unfortunately, disordered eating habits may have prevented you from believing that you can trust your body. They may have muddled with your bodies natural cues, preventing you from being able to adequately nourish your body as you deserve. I’ll help you lean into your bodies natural cues, develop communication with your body, and honor it’s needs.

Before becoming a dietitian, I succumbed to fad diets and the seductive pursuit of weight loss just like most in our culture. But while pursuing a degree in Nutritional Sciences at the University of Connecticut, my education started to chisel away at my previous beliefs. I learned that both food and my body were not things that I could control. I learned that yes you can have a nutritious diet, eat foods you enjoy, exist at your natural weight, and be healthy. All those things can co-exist. Simultaneously, I also learned that pursuit of health is great and not all aspects of our health are controllable either.

After school, I realized my calling was to help people heal their relationship with food by helping them get more connected with it. I went on to work as an apprentice in a kitchen at a small farm in Connecticut, leaning into my love of growing, preparing, and connecting others with food. Once becoming a dietitian, I worked in a PHP/IOP eating disorder treatment program, helping adolescents and adults learn skills to transition into the outpatient setting. Working in the eating disorder realm, I’ve learned that we often think that our disordered eating helps our bodies, but really all they do is hurt us by creating a false sense of protection from pain, trauma, and oppression we’ve experienced. When we find food freedom, then we can actually integrate a nutritious diet for both health and enjoyment. Let me walk alongside you in your journey of finding food freedom. ​
