Nutrition Counseling

I am an in-network provider for United Healthcare, Providence, Blue Cross Blue Shield, MODA, Pacific Source commercial, First Choice Health, and Pacific Source Community Solutions.

If you have insurance, we will bill your insurance for the cost of the visits. The cost of both initial and follow up sessions is $250. Self pay discounts may apply. I accept debit, credit, and HSA cards. I also offer some sliding scale slots for folks experiencing financial hardship.

I currently work with people of all genders ages 13+. I may work with those under 13 on a case by case basis.

This is considered outpatient level of care. The outpatient team consists of a dietitian, therapist, primary care physician (PCP) at minimum. Some teams will also have a psychiatrist, occupational therapist and/or physical therapist. An outpatient team works collaboratively to ensure clients get the best care for their recovery while staying in their day to day life. Clients in outpatient level will typically visit with their dietitian 1-2x/week, therapist 1-2x/week, PCP monthly, and psychiatrist as needed.

Appointments need to be cancelled or rescheduled at least 48 hours ahead of time via email or phone call. If you cancel or reschedule an appointment with less than 48 hours notice, you will be charged the full cost of the service. No-shows will also be charged the full cost of the service. I make exceptions in the case of emergencies only. Thank you for understanding and supporting a small business!

Currently, I am only licensed in the state of Oregon. If you are outside of Oregon, please reach out to see if you reside in a state that I can practice!

It depends! Some clients will work together for a few months while others may work with me for years. We always chat about what feels best for you and come up with a plan together. Typically, we start with weekly visits and make changes from there.

1000%. As a Health at Every Size provider, I do not help people lose weight. But, that absolutely does not mean you cannot have this desire. I talk about this with almost every single client. If this is you, you are welcome here.

Health at Every Size™ is a compassionate care framework that recognizes and promotes body diversity and holistic health. We recognize a focus on intentional weight loss causes harm, does not improve health, and further invokes weight stigma and discrimination. We believe any person in any size body can pursue health and create positive behavior change that prioritizes their individual health desires.

The 5 pillars of health at every size include:

WEIGHT INCLUSIVITY: Accept and respect the inherent diversity of body shapes and sizes and reject the idealizing or pathologizing of specific weights.

HEALTH ENHANCEMENT: Support health policies that improve and equalize access to information and services, and personal practices that improve human well-being, including attention to individual physical, economic, social, spiritual, emotional and other needs.

EATING FOR WELL-BEING: Promote flexible, individualized eating based on hunger, satiety, nutritional needs, and pleasure, rather than any externally regulated eating plan focused on weight control.

RESPECTFUL CARE: Acknowledge our biases, and work to end weight discrimination, weight stigma, and weight bias. Provide information and services from an understanding that socio-economic status, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, and other identities impact weight stigma, and support environments that address these inequities.

LIFE-ENHANCING MOVEMENT: Support physical activities that allow people of all sizes, abilities, and interests to engage in enjoyable movement, to the degree that they choose.
