About Katie
Hi! My name is Katie and I am a Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor who is passionate about helping others find an intuitive eating approach to food to optimize their health and well-being. I have over 5 years of nutrition education and counseling experience that includes disordered eating, emotional eating, type 2 diabetes, heart health, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and enteral nutrition. I look forward to meeting you and I am so excited to help you in your journey!
Approach to care
My approach to help you meet your goals combines intuitive eating, which encourages listening to your body's natural hunger cues, with Health at Every Sizeāfocusing on well-being, regardless of your weight. Together, weāll focus on nourishment, not deprivation, and create sustainable habits that support your mental and physical health.
