Nutrition Support for Eating Disorders, Disordered Eating, and GI Health

  • Eating Disorders

    Eating disorders are life threatening conditions that negatively affect all aspects of an individual’s health. Many eating disorders involve a focus on the physical appearance of the body, leading to compensatory behaviors in order to manipulate our genetic blueprint. Eating disorders are about so much more than food. Recovery from an eating disorder involves diving deep and uncovering the layers. I want to help you make progress towards a full recovery.

    I treat all of the eating disorder diagnoses below:

    • Anorexia Nervosa

    • Bulimia Nervosa

    • Binge Eating Disorder

    • Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)

    • Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder (OSFED)

    • Orthorexia

  • Disordered Eating

    Disordered eating is a term used to describe irregular eating behaviors. Individuals struggling with disordered eating behaviors may not qualify as an eating disorder diagnosis but are just as crucial to seek care. Early awareness and treatment can prevent disordered eating from turning into an eating disorder. Disordered eating can affect all aspects of an individual's health, including physical, social, emotional, and mental health.


    I can help if you are struggling with:

    • Frequent dieting

    • Chronic yo-yo weight fluctuations

    • Preoccupation with food and weight

    • Mindless eating

    • Feel out of control around food

    • Use of exercise or food restriction to compensate for food consumed

  • Intuitive Eating

    At birth, we are born as intuitive eaters. Intuitive eaters trust their body and their signals. Many factors over time impact our ability to stay connected to our internal cues including diet culture, family and friend's beliefs surrounding food, environmental exposures, weight stigma, and much more. Eating based on external influence is very common in today's society, and eating based on inner cues has become the minority. We are taught to disconnect from our bodies in order to regulate our physical appearance. Listening and responding to our body's messages is scary when for so long we have been engrossed in diet culture telling us our bodies are wrong. Intuitive eating is about reconnecting to your body and trusting that it knows what is best for all aspects of your health and happiness. If you have a desire for your relationship with food to be intuitive Emily can help.

    I can help if you are struggling with:

    • Interoceptive awareness

    • Hunger and fullness cues

    • Trusting your body

  • GI Health

    Food intake, stress regulation, and lifestyle all influence gut health. When we support and diversify the gut microbiome, it can have a powerful impact on digestive function, immunity, and overall wellbeing

    I can help you if you are struggling with the following symptoms:

    Constipation

    Diarrhea

    Bloating

    Gas

    Acid reflux

    Dysbiosis

    Malabsorptive issues

    Food sensitivities
