As a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN), I have dedicated my career to empowering my clients to reclaim their body autonomy by finding food freedom and making peace with their bodies. My compassionate approach is informed by the core truth that we are all born with the ability to intuitively nourish our bodies. Mixed messages around food propagated by our culture (i.e. diet culture), however, threaten to disconnect us from our body autonomy and this innate skill. Cue the self-limiting beliefs and shame and, well, you’ve got yourself a messy relationship with food! As a dietitian, I work alongside my clients to help them rediscover their ability to intuitively eat as well as work towards healing their relationship with food. Through my practical, yet empathetic approach, I can help my clients break down big, scary goals into smaller, manageable (i.e. less scary) ones. This ensures that the skills we are working on are sustainable - which is kinda the point! It is my belief that we are far more than what we eat and that everyone deserves a life free from intrusive thoughts about food.

Hi, I'm Ellie! I enjoy supporting clients in exploring body image and patterns of disordered eating through a compassion-focused, non-judgmental, and systems-informed lens. I strive to create an accepting and supportive space in sessions for clients to feel truly seen and heard. I utilize a person-centered approach in accompanying clients on this journey with warmth, humanness, a dose of humor, and unconditional positive regard. I believe that healing can happen through supported exploration and compassionate connection to trusting and caring humans. It is deeply important to me that I incorporate approaches which honor the unique needs of every client, as it is my hope that this can be a space in which clients feel supported, celebrated, and cared for. I enjoy bringing curiosity into this work and meeting clients where they are at - I see the therapy process as one which is creative and collaborative between client and counselor. I typically work with clients age 16+. I am neurodiversity affirming and welcoming of each client's unique experiences and needs.

I am a Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach in the Portland area who believes connection is the most significant ingredient in any relationship. Our relationship with exercises, our relationship with food, our relationship with our body - all of it is centered around connection with ourselves and others. My training methodology follows this belief - our work together is just as much around mental growth as it is physical accomplishment. We focus on what healthy means for YOU and develop a supportive road map to get you there. I've been training for about 4 years, and I've been an athlete my entire life, and have worked through my own struggles around food and body image. I aim to add to the supportive network of individuals involved in helping people re-establish a healthy relationship with food and exercise.
