Balance Health Consulting
Welcome to Balance Health Consulting! Thank you for seeking us out. I am passionate about the physical and emotional care of children, adolescents, and adults, and provide nutrition counseling and meal support where desired and needed. I work with those of all ages, shapes, and sizes who are currently experiencing, or have experienced, symptoms of eating disorders, disordered eating, or who may be seeking more balance in your relationship with food, movement and body image. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you work toward your goals and values.
At Balance Health Consulting, I see your relationship with food and your body as an integral part of your physical and mental health. I provide comprehensive and individualized support of your mind and body, and strive to work with you within the context of your physical environment, social environment, genetics, biology, current state of health and desired state of overall well being. Eating disorders and disordered eating thoughts and behaviors may present differently from person to person regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic background, but can have common coexisting diagnoses and similar severe complications if not treated. And because each individual has their own relationship with food and their body, my hope is to create a space and community where you feel comfortable exploring your personal connection to the world around you.
I see that the relationship one has with food and their body falls on a spectrum, and our commitment is to find where on that spectrum you find and can maintain balance. Using evidence-based practices and a Health At Every Size®, non-diet approach, I commit to delving deeply into your feelings and flexibility around food and your body, to meeting your readiness for change, and to establishing effective, individualized care plans to meet your personal health goals. In doing so, I also recognize the importance of collaboration with other professionals caring for you and will work closely with them to provide additional support. My priority is helping you find balance in your life, so that you feel present, and that you may eat for health and for enjoyment. I believe connections to other people, connections to community, and connections to one’s inner experience help create life meaning and satisfaction.
