Food has become an enemy and a form of self-sabotage for so many, rather than to be used for enjoyment to fuel our bodies. I don't believe there are good or bad foods, though nutrients do feed our brains and bodies in different ways. The more rules we create around food, the more we create cravings and obsessions rather then a sense of peace and control.

 

While I specialize in treating those of all ages with eating disorders, I work with treating a broad spectrum of other nutrition concerns - from helping those with gastrointestinal issues and guiding women through healthy pregnancy's. ​

 

I had ten years of experience working with a treatment team who provided inpatient care to both women and men struggling with eating disorders. In 2013, I began my private practice to better address the needs of my patients. I completed my undergrad at UNC with a BS in Human Nutrition, followed by a Masters in Exercise Physiology and Nutrition. I am also a Registered Dietitian.

A complete approach to nutrition therapy means considering not only a client’s physical needs but also their psychological, social, and spiritual goals. We are much more likely to sustain our health goals when we take a more balanced approach instead of focusing on eating alone. In addition, nutrition messages tend to focus on mostly negative, over-exaggerated, and even conflicting advice about what is good and bad and what we should or should not be putting in our bodies. This leaves us feeling frustrated, overwhelmed and not knowing what to eat. I will work closely with you to help bring balance back into your life and to feel more comfortable, confident, and even excited about your food choices and your body.  

 

I am a firm believer in a "back-to-basics" approach to eating and will work with you to develop long-term, sustainable strategies for achieving a healthful lifestyle. Food is my passion, and I am a graduate of Bauman College, a nutrition-based culinary school. I like to combine my culinary and dietary backgrounds and can help you with simple food preparation techniques and healthy eating habits. 

 

For more than a decade, I have worked with clients of all ages and at all levels of care, specializing in all eating disorders and excessive dieting. I was formerly Lead Dietitian at the Eating Recovery Center, where I continue to see patients on an as-needed basis. In addition, I have counseled clients in diabetes, cardiovascular health, weight loss, and maternal and pediatric nutrition in some of the top hospitals in the country. I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and received my Bachelor of Science in Nutritional Sciences from Rutgers University. I completed my Dietetic Internship at New York Presbyterian Hospital, the Medical School for Columbia and Cornell Universities.

Understanding nutrition can feel impossible in a world where information can become skewed by diet culture and trendy food fads. My goal as a dietitian is to provide the space where we can break it all down and learn about nutrition from a neutral lens. I practice from a non-diet, weight-inclusive approach to help you work toward finding peace with food and your body. Food can be so much more than just nourishment, and my hope is to help you find food freedom.

 

I am a Certified Eating Disorders Registered Dietitian and have nearly 10 years of experience in the field of eating disorders. My passion is working with clients toward recovery from eating disorders, disordered eating and chronic dieting. I strongly believe every person has a chance at full recovery. I also believe that in recovery, working toward Intuitive Eating is possible, and I utilize principles of this approach in my nutrition counseling. 

 

Outside of work, food is also a hobby of mine - whether it’s whipping up a new recipe in my kitchen or trying different restaurants to find the best french fries in Denver. I also love skiing and spending time in the mountains, and am almost never without my rescue pup by my side.

I have always had a passion for helping people in many ways.  I started in the field of behavioral science and moved into nutritional science. I believe that all foods can fit. I've had nine years of experience working at an eating disorder treatment center which helped solidify my view that food truly is medicine.  I come from a non-biased approach to treating all eating disorders.  I have expertise in anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder and ARFID.  I specialize in working with athletes as I worked for seven years with athletes who struggled with eating disorders.

 

I enjoy working with clients and see everyone as an individual. I am able to curate their nutritional needs for them to help reach their optimum goal. Though my primary focus has been with adults with disordered eating, I also have experience and feel comfortable working with children and adolescents in many faucets. 

I went to Metropolitan State College of Denver for my Undergraduate Degree in Behavioral Science and California State University, Las Angeles for my Masters in Nutritional Science. Living in Los Angeles for my masters created more diversity for my passion for nutrition counseling.

I am a native of Colorado, and I love all things Colorado. I love paddle boarding, hiking, skiing and camping.
