about ME

Hello, I’m Kate!  I’m a Registered Dietitian/Mom, and I want to help fellow parents relax about what their kids will and will not eat in today’s world of free-flowing nutrition judgement and seemingly impossible standards for what you ‘should’ serve, what your kids ‘should’ eat, and what your child’s body ‘should’ look like. I love homemade smoothies and store-bought BBQ chips, and I’m here to tell you that it’s ok if you or your kids don’t like kale. 

How I can help

Maybe you’re overwhelmed with nutrition recommendations.  Maybe you feel like a short-order cook just trying to get your kids to eat anything, let alone something deemed ‘healthy.’  Maybe you feel ashamed when well-meaning family members or other professionals label your child based on how she eats or her body size.  Maybe your child is starting to compare his body to others in the world, and you’re wondering how to address it. 

Maybe, like me, you have struggled with disordered eating and want to stop the cycle for your own kids.  My personal story involves challenging what I learned, getting uncomfortable, making lots of mistakes along the way, and learning that my calling in life is helping parents through the same messy, yet beautiful journey.

With a mix of expertise, humor, and a whole lot of compassion and humility, I provide virtual nutrition counseling sessions to individuals and families who struggle with nutrition and body image concerns. I approach our work together through a non-diet, weight-neutral lens that focuses on the unique needs of you and your family.
