Does This Sound Familiar?
You’re constantly thinking about food. What to eat, what not to eat, when you should eat next. Whether you’re packing lunches, squeezing in a workout between classes, or collapsing after a long day, food feels like a battle you never signed up for. You’ve tried every diet. Keto, paleo, intermittent fasting, hoping one would finally bring peace. But instead, you’re left feeling hungry, frustrated, and like you’re still not doing enough.
Even when you're busy taking care of everyone else, that critical voice around food and your body doesn’t quiet down. You’re exhausted by the pressure to eat “perfectly” and look a certain way, and even more tired of feeling guilty for simply enjoying food.
And the truth is… you do love food. Some of your favorite memories involve shared meals, celebrations, comfort dishes. You don’t want to give that up. You just want to stop feeling like food has power over you. You long for the day when eating can feel natural again. Nourishing. Joyful. Free of shame.
Take the first step toward nourishment. Without guilt or shame.

A Different Kind of Therapy for Your Relationship with Food.
Rooted in mindfulness, compassion, and the wisdom of your body.
In my holistic therapy approach, we look at the full picture, not just what you eat, but how you feel, think, and relate to your body and your needs. So many of the busy moms, teachers, and young adults I work with have spent years trying to control food, only to feel more disconnected from themselves. Together, we work to reconnect you to your body’s natural cues; like hunger, fullness, and satisfaction, so that eating feels less like a battle and more like a partnership.
You’ll learn to slow down, become more present with your meals, and understand what your body is really asking for. We’ll use mindfulness techniques, like grounding, reframing, and compassionate self-talk, to help you notice and challenge the beliefs that keep you stuck, especially the ones that lead to guilt, shame, or harsh self-judgment.
This isn’t about following another food plan or chasing perfection. It’s about creating something that works in your real life. Whether that’s packing snacks for your kids, eating lunch between meetings, or navigating food choices in a college dining hall. Our work will support you in building a sustainable, intuitive relationship with food. One where joy, nourishment, and trust can exist without pressure or rules.
