NUTRITION COUNSELING
Our relationship to food often represents our relationships in other aspects of our life. When we are able to learn to eat in a way that nourishes body, spirit and mind, we experience a more peaceful and compassionate relationship with our Whole Self.
Through our sessions, we will help you create an individualized plan that will assist you in:
Developing awareness of your specific behavioral patterns
Feeling empowered to feed yourself in alignment with your body’s needs
Using tools and practices of mindful eating and intuitive eating through a non-diet, weight-inclusive, holistic approach to support more acceptance and embodiment
SESSIONS
Initial: The initial session is a nutrition assessment that usually lasts 60 minutes. During this session, we go over your medical, health and eating history. We discuss your current eating patterns and challenges, as well as nutrition and movement goals. The initial session is also a time where you can bring any questions or concerns to us about the nutrition therapy process so that we can begin to collaborate as a team and develop an individualized plan for you.
Follow-up: Subsequent nutrition sessions typically last 45 minutes. We will work together to follow up on your specific nutrition and behavioral goals, bringing mindfulness and compassionate awareness as we look more in depth at daily food choices, beliefs and eating patterns.
