Nice to meet you! My name is Katie and I accidentally fell in love with nutrition through my passion for psychology and counseling. The universe led me to a few counseling jobs within the eating disorder field, which is now my area of expertise as a dietitian. Nowadays, I am most often answering to “mama,” as I have a young daughter that I spend most of my time with outside of work. In addition to my degree in nutrition and psychology, I hold an art degree — one that today only gets used when I find time to paint. However, I am always enthusiastically trying to find ways to stay creative through baking, physical activity and movement, and decorating for the holidays (namely spooky season!). In my spare time, you can find watching the latest series on Bravo or Instagram posting and promoting eating disorder recovery content.
Areas of Specialty
A majority of my work involves helping clients to improve their relationships with food and their bodies using an inclusive, and individualized, anti-diet approach. My expertise lies in eating disorders, sports nutrition, and pre/postpartum care. My background in psychology and long history working in mental health has equipped me to work with various co occurring conditions that impact nutrition. In addition to my clinical work at Balanced, I am also the professional outreach director, and am always happy to chat with you about our many wonderful clinical relationships.

Nutrition Philosophy
My own nutrition philosophy is a mix of anti-diet, HAES, and no-stress nutrition. The goal is always to balance the science of nutrition with enjoyment of life. I will challenge you expand your definition of health beyond weight and numbers to include sleep, energy, movement, mood, food, relationships, and so on.
My goal is to understand your unique relationship with food and eating, your history with movement and exercise, and other life experiences that have shaped you. From there we will then work to marry your specific needs with the evidence-based nutrition goals that make sense to you.
