About
Jamie is a passionate and experienced dietitian specializing in eating disorders, disordered eating, and chronic dieting. She enjoys listening to people’s personal stories, discovering what influences their beliefs about food and their bodies, and helping them develop a more peaceful relationship with food. Her experience allows her to recognize distorted beliefs and unhealthy patterns of eating, and provide thoughtful guidance rooted in evidence-based nutrition science.
Approach to Care
Jamie takes a compassionate approach to nutrition therapy by meeting people where they are in their personal journeys and helping them make incremental changes in order to restore a peaceful relationship with food and their bodies. She understands the harmful nature of diet culture and takes an approach to nutrition therapy that is both affirming and sustainable. She will tailor a treatment plan based in an individual’s specific needs and goals, always striving towards a place of recovery and growth.
What to Expect
In your first session with Jamie, she will be gathering as much information about you as she can in order to understand your struggles, your goals, and to get to know you as a person. If you have any anxieties about meeting with a dietitian, she invites you to bring those to the session and discuss them with her. She will ask about your health history, your eating patterns, your beliefs about food, your body image, your goals, and she will listen from a place without judgment and with care and concern for your overall wellbeing. If, at the end of the session, you feel like she is a good fit, she will invite you to set your next appointment and go from there.
