-Virginia Woolf

Joanna is a weight-neutral dietitian and fierce advocate of positive embodiment. She believes in unwavering self-compassion, flexibility with food, and curiosity in all things. She is a former competitive soccer player, marathon runner, longtime yogi, and she loves, loves helping women age gracefully and energetically while rejecting restriction and disordered eating. She is an expert in women's health, disordered eating, metabolic health, and helping women make small, sustainable changes toward food peace and overall vitality.
She combines Intuitive Eating expertise with pragmatic solutions and value-based work to collaborate with clients in finding a place of sustainable, nourishing self-care that respects life and food satisfaction and health goals while working through the history with food and body to identify any areas that need further support and exploration.
An area of special significance for her is working with clients that are going through or have gone through a divorce in prioritizing themselves and finding a self-care plan to increase resilience, both physically and emotionally. She is a child of divorce and understands the impact it can have on partners, children, and the family.
Hey there!
Let's unapologetically prioritize self-care.
