MY PHILOSOPHY
Amanda uses a anti-diet, weight-neutral, trauma-informed, Health at Every Size® based nutrition approach. She combines evidence based research, empathy, and experience to best serve her clients. Amanda is passionate about helping individuals make peace with food and body.
What does this all mean? Amanda believes we are all born intuitive eaters and have the ability to get back to that place. Learning to tune into and honor our body’s cues in order to nourish ourselves, rather than listening to diet culture’s unrealistic expectations of what we ‘should’ be eating or look like. She believes everyone is deserving of the freedom that comes from not thinking about food/body image all day which allows individuals to focus their energy on the values of their life that bring them true joy.
