Compassion, empathy, and curiosity
Hey there, I'm Dana. I am so glad you are here!
I am on a mission to change the way we talk about food and feel about our bodies.
As a registered dietitian and nutrition therapist, I bring over 15 years experience counseling diverse patients. My approach to nutrition therapy is HAES® aligned, with an emphasis on intuitive eating. I support my clients in making mindset and behavior shifts that are aligned with their core values. I help my clients develop a truly healthy relationship with food and their bodies using researched-based nutrition strategies and nutrition education.
I honor that YOU are the expert of your own body. I can help you become more attuned to your body and honor your body's needs without food guilt or body shame. I can support you in cultivating a peaceful approach to eating. I can help you reclaim pleasure and satisfaction while breaking free from chronic dieting, restriction and food rules. I can guide you in taking a mindful approach to movement and building a trusting relationship with your body.
What I believe:
... body diversity & neurodiversity is real
... health and worth are not defined by weight or body size
... only you know how it feels to be in your body
... you are the expert on what's right for you given your unique experiences and circumstances
... you deserve a relationship with food that brings you joy and satisfaction
... all bodies deserve safe spaces and respectful healthcare
I work with adults (18+). I am currently seeing clients both in person and virtually via a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform. I welcome the team approach and would love to collaborate with the other members of your healthcare team. I value diversity, equity, and inclusivity. I strive to create a counseling space that feels safe and non-judgmental, where all minds & bodies are welcome.
