Are you…
…tired of all the Diet and Fitness Culture Noise and feel a little lost about what is true for your unique body and life?
…interested in healing your relationship with food, eating and your body?
…seeking to develop whole-person well-being without feeling stressed and obsessed about food and the scales?
…wanting to learn how to fuel all of the ways you play?
With respect, true listening, and compassion, we get to know your unique concerns, culture, lived experience, and aspirations. We feel strongly that you are the expert of you! Inviting you to become more curious and clear about what is true for you, we will partner with you to create a sustainable path to your whole-person well-being.
How It Works
INITIAL INTAKE
1
At Body in Mind Nutrition, we look forward to getting to know you. You will have an opportunity to talk about your diet and health history, food, eating and body beliefs, concerns and goals, activities, experiences and current habitual patterns. We are committed to you feeling respected, heard and seen. To support your feeling at ease, we will take our time and follow your pace.
INDIVIDUALIZED PLAN
2
We believe that you are the expert of your own body and that healing happens within relationships. Therefore, we are committed to establishing a partnership with you. Rather than “telling you what to eat”, together, we will work to create curiosity and awareness which empowers you to make the choices that support your well-being. With respect and compassion, we will develop a plan for sustainable changes to heal your relationship with food, eating, and your body.
SUPPORT SYSTEM
3
We utilize a HIPPA-compliant journaling app which allows you to stay in touch between appointments, if you choose. With your permission, we will also communicate with members of your treatment team and personal support system, as needed. We understand that our culture does not support self-care and feeling at ease with food, eating and, your body. Therefore, we are committed to creating supportive community. See our Groups, Courses, & Workshops for details.

“I have been a client of Body in Mind Nutrition several times over the years and have had a great experience each time. They are gracious and welcoming, willing to listen, and wise in their counsel. Folks often think of nutritionists as the "food police" - not at all! They listen, counsel, provide compassion, offer encouragement when things go well, and insight when you hit a bump in the road. I recommend them highly and without hesitation. They have taught me so much about living a whole and balanced life - not one focused on daily weigh-ins - but on all the joy life (and food) has to offer.” -SARA
