Your Journey, Our Commitment

Rebecca and Cameron bring extensive experience supporting individuals throughout their journey with eating disorders, spanning all stages of recovery. With backgrounds in residential care, intensive outpatient, and outpatient settings, we offer the expertise and insight to guide you regardless of where you are in your path to recovery.

We understand the lasting impact of eating disorders and the challenges they can bring even after years of recovery. We're here to provide ongoing nutritional support for those who are strong in their recovery but still need guidance.

We recognize the unique hurdles of parenthood, feeding children post-recovery, and even how to fuel yourself for an athletic endeavor. Whether it's infertility concerns, family feeding dynamics, or athletic performance, we offer compassionate support and tailored guidance to help you navigate these challenges and achieve your goals.

The Balanced Nutrition Way

All foods fit. (Unless you have an anaphylactic reaction to one, don’t touch that.)

We're all about throwing out those eating disorder rules and rules of dieting here.  Picture this: nourishing your body, mind, and soul without all the stress. Yep, that's our vibe! We're firm believers that all foods have a place in a healthy lifestyle – just gotta enjoy 'em mindfully and in moderation, ya know?

Our mission is to help you build that awesome relationship with food and exercise. So, let's dig in together, sift thru the mess of messages around food, body and movement and uncover the joy of eating what you love while keeping it real with your cravings, movement, and how you feel in your body.

Your Body Knows Best. (Yes, even better than the internet or *gulp* your mom.)

So, here's the deal: your body's like this super smart guru when it comes to knowing what it needs. We're talking next-level intuition, but thanks to eating disorders and society's pressure, we've kinda lost that connection. Ever mixed up hunger with emotional cravings? Or felt full despite not eating for ages? It's confusing, right?

But guess what? We're all (except for a few rare genetic abnormalities) born with the ability to intuitively eat. Ever seen a baby cry when hungry and push food away when full? That's the magic! So let's ditch the confusion and tune back into your body's natural wisdom. We can help guide you back to cueing into your body!

Rock your Body; Roll with your Image.

Ready to embrace your inner rockstar? With mindful movement, self-care, exposure work and the passage of time, we'll guide you to tolerate, and eventually embrace the body you’re in.  Ever heard of "Health At Every Size"? Yeah, that's our jam. We're all about celebrating every body, no matter the size or shape. Together, we'll dive into some awesome strategies to cultivate self-compassion, kick those negative beliefs to the curb, and rock that positive body image like never before.

Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

We're all about collaboration here, and that means connecting with and learning from the best – doctors, therapists, coaches, you name it. By combining our expertise with theirs, we're getting a full picture of what you need to rock your journey.

Meet Your Dietitians

Our compassionate team is here to listen, support, and guide you through the challenges you encounter.
