Nutritionists and Dietitians near Falls Church, VA

I believe food does so much more than fuel our bodies. Eating brings families together, creates memories, tells stories, and adds to our experiences in life. For many people, food can hold a lot of power and can be a significant source of fear, stress, and anxiety. I strive to empower my clients to rediscover enjoyment in eating by helping them improve their relationship with food and their body.

You deserve a peaceful, respectful relationship with your body, a natural, enjoyable relationship with food, and a sustainable, joyful relationship with movement. If you are experiencing challenges or distress around the food you eat or the exercise you do (or do not do), you could benefit from nutrition support and intuitive eating guidance. If you are struggling with an eating disorder/disordered eating or are tired of cycling through diet after diet, you can expect to receive support that meets you where you are - together we can work towards full recovery.

I specialize in intuitive eating, gut & hormones. Your relationship with food does not have to be complicated. You may be exhausted from dieting most of your life and found that the constant focus on food has affected your life. You may think about food all day & are in a place where you want to get back to living your life vs. constantly focusing on food. Maybe you have recovered physically from an Eating Disorder but feel like there is more work to be done to break fear around foods. I have helped many people that have felt hopeless overcome fear around foods, stop binge eating, and find a healthy, joyful relationship with food.

Ideally, a client who presents with disordered eating and needs a combination of psychotherapy, nutritional therapy, and bodywork or fitness training. Using a holistic approach, I address underlying issues and triggers behind the disordered eating. I teach clients to identify their feelings, use non-food coping skills, awareness of true hunger cues, and become more connected to their bodies by separating food from feelings.

My philosophy in a nutshell: Deciding what to eat shouldn't be complicated. In a world where food and wellness are the new religion, I’m as undogmatic as they come.

By focusing on our relationship with food, in addition to overall nutrition, we quite literally bring joy back to the table.
