About Me

I'm a Dietitian with over eight years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and parents in building more peaceful, trusting relationships with food. My work focuses on the entire family system—helping kiddos who are struggling with eating challenges, guiding parents who want to support their child’s nourishment without pressure or fear, and helping caregivers heal their own relationship with food so they can pass along confidence rather than confusion.

I am Certified in Fertility Nutrition and Nutrition for Pregnancy through the Early Life Nutrition Alliance, and I bring this lens into my family‑centered approach. Whether a family is preparing for pregnancy, navigating the perinatal period, or supporting a child through feeding difficulties, I help create a home environment where food feels safe, flexible, and connected. Alongside this work, I also have multiple years of experience supporting individuals after bariatric surgery, helping them rebuild a trusting, sustainable relationship with food—an approach that naturally complements my commitment to supporting families and caregivers in healing their relationship with nourishment across all stages of life.

 

My approach is rooted in the belief that every person—at every age—deserves compassionate and evidence‑based nutrition support.

From May through October, I offer nutrition counseling in our Seeds of Strength community garden, where I partner with our therapists and gardener to blend evidence‑based nutrition care with the healing power of nature. These sessions help individuals reconnect with growing and preparing food while supporting resilience and mental health for those navigating challenges such as depression, OCD, eating disorders, and PTSD.
