Hi, I'm Brenna! I work with adolescents, teens and adults who are struggling with disordered eating, recovery from chronic dieting, binge-restrict cycles, body image concerns and wanting to be able to pursue health without obsession.

I help people get reconnected with their body and mind by addressing the root cause of their health issues.

Work with me if you want more energy, digestive relief and more freedom and confidence making food choices so you can live a vibrant life.
