Be heard, seen and understood

One of my greatest strengths is my compassion for others.  Knowing your story and how you experience food struggles is important to me. I'm a naturally empathetic listener and years of providing nutrition counseling has enhanced those traits.  I use a Motivational Interviewing approach that emphasizes reflective listening and elicits motivation from within you.  Eating disorders are about more than food, so  it makes sense to have a dietitian who understands how the psychological, physical, emotional and social aspects are effecting you personally.
​
​

Receive Collaborative Care

Because of these multifaceted aspects of eating disorders, a hallmark of excellent treatment is using a team approach. Since 2009, I've been working alongside a number of therapists, physicians, pyschiatrists, and other team members in a variety of levels of care.  For more information on my background, feel free to scroll down to "Professional Experience."

Who else is on the team?  You.  I collaborate with you, the most important team member.   It's your choices, your goals, and your treatment!  I also like to include your primary support person, whether that's your spouse, parent(s) or close friend.
​

Grow in Hope and Freedom

While walking alongside you in your struggle, my goal is to increase your hope. Hope is not wishful thinking; it's the confident knowing that things will be better in the future. On a personal level, my relationship with Jesus gives me hope for healing for everyone experiencing eating problems. He is the ultimate counselor, advocate and healer.
