About Elise

Hi! I'm Elise, a dietitian who believes in the power of food to support our physical and mental health, as well as provide joy. After years of working in the hospital setting, with an eating disorder focus, I have transitioned to the outpatient setting to help support everyday health changes. It is my mission to help you live a life of balance, connection, and freedom from food rules!

Approach to care

I practice with a compassionate and individualized approach. I aim to provide realistic nutrition education that can provide a true, sustainable impact on your life. I utilize aspects of intuitive eating and Health at Every Size to support your work towards recovery, food freedom, and improved health. I believe that everyone is deserving and capable of having a positive relationship with food and body.

Your first session with Elise

During our first session we will spend time getting to know each other and creating a safe space for you to share authentically. I will want to know your primary concerns and reasons for seeking support. I will also gather information on your medical history, lifestyle, eating patterns, etc. We will work together to create goals as well as an action plan to move towards these goals. We will end the session by scheduling our next follow-up, which is typically weekly in the beginning to provide the most supportive experience for you. I look forward to working with you!
