Our Approach

Integrating Heart, Mind & Body

Our approach is deeply rooted in philosophies of responsive feeding, neuro-diversity affirming and trauma-informed health care. It is also informed by our own journeys as caregivers and humans that have struggled with the ups and downs of physical and mental health challenges.

Our goal is to act in the best interestof clients at all times by infusing our assessments, recommendations, and counseling with the latest nutrition science, including functional and integrative approaches.

Our Philosophy

We value curiosity-led conversations about how nutrition and the body are interwoven with emotions, thoughts, sensation, communication, actions and behaviors.

We believe all bodies and brains belong and are worthy of their own space in the conversation of health.

We know joyful eating is possible for each individual an family. Joyful eating and mealtimes happen when we feel:

  • Peaceful: “I am enough”
  • Satisfied: “What I do matters and works for me”
  • Our values and beliefs match our actions
  • Connected to the people that matter most to us
  • A sense of well-being and wholeness

We’re Here for You

In working with hundreds of parents, children and their community and medical teams over the years, we have learned so much from listening to stories, leaning in with empathy and deep respect, gathering and integrating clinical information and specialized nutrition approaches, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, and most importantly, holding space for healing shifts to occur around each parents and children’s tender relationship with food and their bodies.

When parents and children’s mind, body and spirit needs get met, joyful eating and better nutrition blossom naturally. We would be honored to join you in your journey.

Health is a term that has been largely, in the past, been defined by ‘organizations’, and yet, it holds incredible power when we, as individuals, take it back in order to define it uniquely for ourselves, moment by moment.
