Are you tired of spending hours logging your food on your calorie counting app?
Hi! I'm Katie (she/her) I'm a registered dietitian who supports you in finding food freedom and a nourishing relationship with your body while ALSO helping you be the healthiest version of you. Yep! I promise you can have both.
As someone with their own recovery story, I feel strongly about meeting you where you are and working within your capacity to facilitate gentle expansion. It took me 2 years to reach out for help – it’s really scary to take the leap. Just know that YOU are the driver of the bus here.
Meet Katie: Non-Diet Dietitian, Blogger, + Dog mom.
If you're struggling with feeling stuck in cycles of restriction and overeating, stressing about food choices, feeling like the number on the scale controls your life, or just tired of trying diet after diet, I’m here to support you. It's so overwhelming trying to navigate conflicting messages about what you “should” be eating.
In our work together, we’ll focus on what your body truly needs, finding simple and sustainable ways to meet those needs—without the pressure to be perfect.
You'll learn how to connect with your body, break free from diet culture, and find more ease and joy in your eating habits. No matter where you’re starting, I’m here to walk alongside you as you move toward a healthier, more empowered version of yourself—one where food feels nourishing and enjoyable, not stressful.
