RELATIONSHIP WITH FOOD
01.
I help women ditch dieting for good, heal their relationships with food and nourish their bodies in a way that makes them feel great.
Here's what I do...
BODY IMAGE COACHING
02.
I help women who are struggling with their body image. My clients include: competitive athletes, new mom's and/or postpartum, teens, students and young adults.
I believe in body-neutrality and the pursuit of health at any size (Health at Every Size, HAES).
INTUITIVE EATING
03.
This is where body image, nutrition and our relationship with food intersects. The Intuitive Eating principles are at the heart of my work.
Hi! I'm Heather (she/her)
Registered Dietitian
My approach to nutrition counseling and body image coaching is this:
-
I'm a weight neutral, health at every size practitioner. This means that I do not focus on your weight in providing care for you. I believe that everyone can pursue health at any size.

Compassion and empathy are my superpowers. I started this practice so I could reach more people like you. The connections I've built with clients go far beyond basic nutrition education.
-
I use Intuitive Eating principles to guide my practice.
-
I am not anti-weight loss, but I am anti-dieting. Let's call me a non-diet dietitian.
By working with me you will gain…
-
True science-based knowledge on nutrition such as understanding metabolism, hormones and key nutrients to focus on.
-
The truth about dieting and weight
-
Improved relationship with food

Improved body image

And of course a personal cheerleader
