Research has shown that healthy metabolic parameters are more important than your weight or BMI. We have known for a while now that “yo-yo” dieting or fads contribute to long term health problems and induce further instability in the body. Additionally, fad diets feed into toxic concepts of self by making you feel like you are never good enough; acceptance of body image becomes that much harder. Unfortunately, weight loss products and ads are ubiquitous. Finding the right diet while practicing intuitive, mindful eating are crucial to a more healthy psychology.

I believe in encouraging an awareness around eating that contributes to a long-term, healthy relationship with food. I am also a realist who believes in advice based on science to get past all the money-grabbing food trends out there. For my work, I adopt an honest, holistic approach that honours the individual by being sensitive to what are often complex issues in our relationship to food. I am open-minded, positive, and believe in giving hope to those I help as when someone is motivated, results are much better. My strategy is simple: I listen.
