Intuitive Eating & Body Trust®
If you feel stuck in the cycle of dieting, food rules, or body shame, this space is for you. Together, we’ll explore how cues like hunger, fullness, satisfaction, and self-care can guide your choices. Instead of rigid plans, we’ll focus on cultivating trust in your body, reducing stress around food, and creating a more peaceful relationship with eating.
In our work together, we’ll:
Unpack how diet culture has impacted you personally and how it continues to show up in your daily life.
Explore concrete ways to reject diet culture and make choices that feel more aligned with your values.
Learn and practice the principles of Intuitive Eating, adapting them to your unique circumstances and needs.
Explore how different foods and nutrients support your body, finding ways to incorporate them that feel flexible, accessible, and satisfying.
Shift away from guilt, shame, and rigid rules toward flexibility, curiosity, and self-compassion.
Build sustainable habits that support both your physical and emotional well-being.
Explore how GI conditions, food allergies, or intolerances may be showing up in your relationship with food, and find an approach that feels both nourishing and manageable.
This is not about finding the “perfect” way to eat. It’s about creating more space, freedom, and trust in your relationship with food and your body. My role is to walk alongside you with curiosity and compassion, helping you reconnect with yourself on your own terms.
Perinatal Nutrition (fertility, pregnancy, postpartum)
Fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum bring significant physical and emotional shifts, and the nutrition advice available can feel overwhelming and contradictory. My role is to provide clear, supportive guidance so you feel grounded, confident, and cared for during this transformative season.
In our work together, I can help you:
Support your fertility journey with evidence-based nutrition strategies tailored to your unique needs.
Navigate the deeply personal journey of infertility with compassion and evidence-based nutrition support, including the added layers that conditions like PCOS and endometriosis can bring.
Find relief from common pregnancy side effects such as nausea, reflux, and constipation.
Understand your unique nutrient needs to support healthy energy, weight gain, and overall well-being.
Choose supplements with confidence so you know you’re meeting key requirements.
Reduce your risk for complications with personalized nutrition strategies.
Support your baby’s long-term health through evidence-based nutrition approaches.
Sort through conflicting advice and food myths so you can focus on what really matters.
What makes this approach unique is that you’ll receive more than just general guidelines. With specialized training in perinatal nutrition, I combine clinical knowledge with compassion for the lived experience of fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum. My goal is to help you feel cared for and reassured, while giving you the tools to make confident, nourishing choices every step of the way.
PCOS Nutrition
PCOS can bring a mix of physical, emotional, and hormonal challenges — along with a lot of conflicting nutrition advice. If you've been told to cut out foods, follow strict plans, or focus on weight loss to "fix" your symptoms, you're not alone. At Mindfully Guided, I offer compassionate, weight-neutral support that honors the full complexity of living with PCOS.
In our work together, I can help you:
Explore how PCOS shows up in your body and what that means for your unique nutrition needs.
Support blood sugar balance in flexible, non-restrictive ways that don't require cutting out entire food groups.
Build balanced, satisfying meals without rigid plans or all-or-nothing thinking.
Navigate cravings, hunger, and fullness with more clarity and less guilt.
Untangle the diet culture messaging that so often surrounds PCOS care — and find an approach that actually feels sustainable.
Support your energy, mood, and daily nourishment in ways that go beyond symptom management.
Explore nutrition in the context of fertility and hormone health, whether you're thinking about conception or simply wanting to feel better day to day.
Whether you've just been diagnosed, have been managing symptoms for years, or are navigating the intersection of PCOS and fertility, you deserve care that sees you as more than a hormone panel. My goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and at home in your body.
Eating Disorder Recovery
Healing your relationship with food takes time, and you deserve support that meets you exactly where you are. I welcome individuals navigating eating disorder recovery who are appropriate for outpatient care , including those recovering from restriction, binge eating disorder, purging behaviors, and other disordered eating patterns.
In our work together, we'll:
Move at a pace that feels safe and manageable for you, without pressure or rigid timelines.
Build meal structure and support that feels manageable, not overwhelming, and move toward restoring regular, consistent eating patterns at a pace that feels safe for you.
Identify and address nutritional deficiencies, filling in the gaps so your body feels more nourished and supported.
Gently reconnect you with your hunger and fullness cues, normalizing signals that may feel unfamiliar or hard to trust.
Challenge food rules and fear foods with curiosity and compassion — never pressure or rigid timelines.
Support weight restoration when it is a needed and important part of your recovery.
Navigate the added complexity of GI conditions, food allergies, or intolerances in a way that supports your recovery rather than fueling restriction.
Collaborate with your therapist, treatment team, or other providers to ensure your nutrition care fits within the bigger picture of your healing.
Identify when additional support may be helpful, and connect you with trusted providers in my referral network if a higher level of care is ever needed.
Recovery isn't linear, and there's no "right" way to be in it. My role is to walk alongside you with patience and care, honoring the progress you've already made while supporting what comes next.
OCD & Food-Related Fear
When OCD or anxiety shows up around food, eating can feel anything but simple. This space is for people who feel trapped by fear or uncertainty around food — whether that's anxiety about how food was prepared, intrusive thoughts that make eating feel unsafe, fears about ingredients or contamination, or rules and rituals that have become exhausting to maintain. You don't have to explain or justify what feels scary. Whatever form it takes, it deserves to be taken seriously.
In our work together, we'll:
Explore how OCD and food-related anxiety are showing up in your relationship with eating, without pressure to move faster than feels safe.
Provide accurate, evidence-based information about food in a way that supports your recovery — not in a way that feeds the cycle.
Gently work toward more variety and flexibility around food, supporting your nourishment while you do the hard work of recovery.
Address any nutritional gaps that may have developed from restriction, and support how you feel physically — your energy, focus, and mood.
Work closely alongside your therapist or treatment team, so that your nutrition care fits within the bigger picture of your recovery.
Create a consistent, non-judgmental space where you feel genuinely safe to show up as you are.
Healing from OCD is the work of your treatment team — my role is to help you stay nourished and supported while that work unfolds. You don't have to have it figured out to start. I'm here to walk alongside you with patience and care.
Trauma-Informed Nutrition Counseling
For many people, food and eating are deeply connected to past experiences, including trauma. Whether that's a history of restriction, a complicated relationship with your body, experiences of weight stigma in healthcare, or something else entirely, those experiences deserve to be acknowledged and honored in the care you receive.
Trauma-informed practice means that your sense of safety, autonomy, and control are at the center of everything we do together. There is no pressure to share more than you're ready to, no agenda that overrides your needs, and no "right" pace for this work.
In our work together, we'll:
Move at a pace that feels safe and grounded for you, always.
Prioritize your sense of agency — you are always the expert on your own experience.
Explore how past experiences may be showing up in your relationship with food and your body today.
Build skills and practices that support nervous system regulation alongside nourishment.
Create a consistent, predictable, and compassionate space where you feel genuinely seen.
Healing is possible, and it doesn't require revisiting everything. My role is simply to be a steady, trustworthy presence as you find your way forward.
Weight-Neutral Care & Health at Every Size® (HAES®)
At Mindfully Guided, care is never contingent on your size, and weight loss is never the goal. My practice is fully aligned with Health at Every Size® (HAES®) principles, an evidence-informed framework that recognizes health is influenced by far more than body weight, and that pursuing wellbeing looks different for every person.
In our work together, we'll:
Shift the focus from the scale to how you actually feel — your energy, digestion, mood, and relationship with food.
Explore sustainable, nourishing behaviors that support your health without dieting or restriction.
Unpack the ways weight stigma may have shaped your healthcare experiences and your relationship with your own body.
Set goals rooted in what matters to you, not in achieving a particular number.
You deserve care that sees you as a whole person, not a problem to be solved. Whether you've been burned by diet culture, let down by providers who reduced your health to your weight, or simply never felt at home in a traditional nutrition setting, this is a different kind of space.
Neurodivergent-Affirming Nutrition Counseling
Intuitive Eating is often presented as simple: just listen to your body. But for many neurodivergent people — those with ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences, or other neurotypes — connecting with hunger and fullness cues can feel anything but straightforward. Medication, sensory sensitivities, executive function challenges, and a lifetime of being told your body's signals are "wrong" can all get in the way. This space is built with that reality in mind.
In our work together, we'll:
Explore how you experience hunger, fullness, and satisfaction.
Adapt Intuitive Eating principles in ways that are actually workable for your brain and life.
Address sensory sensitivities, food rigidity, or limited variety without shame or pressure.
Build flexible, low-barrier approaches to nourishment that support your energy and focus.
Untangle any messaging you've received that your eating habits are a personal failing (spoiler, they're not).
You don't have to fit into a one-size-fits-all model of "healthy eating." My approach honors the full complexity of how you experience food, and meets you where you are.
Support for Chronic Health Conditions
Living with a chronic health condition often comes with a lot of nutrition noise — restrictive plans, fear-based messaging, and advice that centers weight loss above everything else. If you've left a provider's office feeling overwhelmed, ashamed, or unsure where to start, you're not alone. You deserve support that takes your health seriously without reducing you to your diagnosis or your weight.
I offer weight-neutral, non-diet nutrition support for a range of chronic and medical conditions, including:
Diabetes & prediabetes
High cholesterol & cardiovascular health
High blood pressure
Digestive conditions (IBS, IBD, Crohn's disease, celiac disease, gastroparesis, acid reflux/GERD)
Fatty liver disease (NAFLD/MASLD)
Hypothyroidism & Hashimoto's
and more
Managing a chronic condition and having a peaceful relationship with food are not mutually exclusive. My goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and confident in caring for your body — without adding more stress to your plate.
