Nutritional Therapy

It’s not all in your head

Nutritional therapy consultation services are available to residents of Maryland and Pennsylvania.

Currently, services are being offered through a secure, online platform.

 

Nutritional Therapy Consultations

In addition to ongoing psychotherapy services, I provide one-time consultations and 5-session bundles personalized to you with nutritional and lifestyle recommendations.

Nutritional therapy consultations can be a great option for someone who simply wants to learn more about the connection between their nutrition and mental health. Here, you will complete a bioindividual assessment, a 320-point nutritional assessment, food and mood journals, and receive personalized nutritional and lifestyle recommendations to help you reach your mental health goals. These interventions can be used on their own, or to supplement your existing mental health treatment.

I am happy to coordinate with your providers and help fill in a gap often found in mental health treatment.

Are you a provider hoping to learn more or collaborate?

What is Nutritional Therapy?

Nutritional therapy highlights the relationship between what we eat and how we feel. I am passionate about professionals staying within their scope, and will only provide recommendations related to mental health, excluding other physical conditions. Nutritional therapy is an often underutilized tool to use in supporting one’s mental health goals and overall wellness.

What Nutritional Therapy is NOT:

  • promotion of “good” versus “bad” foods

  • promotion of weight loss (I adhere to HAES® principles)

  • focus on disordered eating

    • NOTE: I do not specialize in eating and feeding disorders. If you are in need of a disordered eating therapist, I can refer you to many wonderful clinicians in the area

  • focus on “looking” your best (we are talking about feeling more nourished and fulfilled!)

Why does nutrition matter?

Our relationships with food can be confusing. I like to help individuals re-examine this relationship so we can view what we eat (and its many nutrients, vitamins, and minerals) as a source of fuel for the parts of our body and mind that help us live fulfilling lives. Being mindful of ensuring we are getting enough nutrients is an excellent (but often missed) tool to aid with our mental health and wellness goals.
