We all eat, and food is something that touches almost every area of your life!  When you eat, it’s usually about more than just the food in front of you and it impacts you more than just biology.  Your emotions, traditions, relationships, mental and physical health can each be impacted by your diet, and your diet can impact any of these individual factors as well.  As a registered dietitian, I can help you understand your body, nutrition, and how they work together for your overall health and well-being.  I hope to help you make changes that will support a sustainable, healthy, and free lifestyle.

As a registered and licensed dietitian, I have worked with clients struggling with their eating for years.  I love helping people feel better about food!  I am currently working on becoming a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist and have enjoyed combining my knowledge of nutrition with everything I have learned about eating disorders.
