Hi there!

I’m a Personal Trainer at Ash & Birch Counseling with more than 13 years of experience in personal training, exercise science, and nutrition. My work centers on helping adults safely integrate movement into their lives, no matter where they are in their recovery or wellness journey.

​

Early in my career, I focused heavily on weight loss, but I quickly saw how harmful that model can be. Over time, I shifted to a weight‑neutral approach that prioritizes health, resilience, and self‑acceptance—not numbers on a scale.

​

My integrative style weaves together Safe Exercise at Every Stage, Functional Movement Training, Corrective Exercise, Strength & Conditioning, and Intuitive Eating. Through this blend, I support clients in reconnecting with their bodies, building confidence, and cultivating long‑term well‑being.

​

Whether I’m walking alongside someone in eating disorder recovery, helping an athlete enhance performance, or supporting a person through lifestyle change, I strive to create a compassionate, structured environment where movement becomes a tool for healing and growth.
