Education and Principles

I am a certified Mind Body Nutrition and Dynamic Eating Psychology coach. I was trained at the Institute for the Psychology of Eating by Marc David, the institute's founder and the thought leader behind these amazing new methods.  This training has given me powerful cutting-edge tools and protocols that enable me to work with weight concerns, binge eating, overeating, body image challenges, and various nutrition related health concerns such as digestion, fatigue, mood, and immunity. The skills I use are a combination of practical coaching techniques, results-oriented psychology, clinical nutrition, body-centered practices, mind body science, and a compassionate approach to challenges with food and health. My approach is both positive and empowering. I don’t see your eating challenges as a sign that something is wrong with you but as a place for exploring personal dimensions that impact food, weight and health. Oftentimes, our eating challenges are connected to work, money, relationship, family, intimacy or life stress. By working on the places that are most relevant for you, success is more easily achieved. I look to support you with coaching strategies and nutrition principles that are nourishing, doable, and that yield results.
