Eating disorder and Intuitive Eating Nutritionist
After struggling with my own relationship with food as well as feeling misled or gaslit by many health professionals in my early 20s, I have a personal goal to make all of my clients feel heard, safe, and taken seriously during our time together.
Nutrition needs to be individualized work to be effective. I make sure to get to know each of my clients so that we can collaborate in ways that work best for them. Let's make meaningful, sustainable change together!
you're in the right place.
Whether you are struggling with an eating disorder, are confused by nutrition advice online, or feel overwhelmed by the executive functioning required to feed yourself,
My mission is to help you feel more comfortable in your body.

"It has been such a treat working with Ellen.
She takes a practical & holistic approach to nutrition and on top of being insightful, is very validating in her ability to listen to the individual's story. This experience was well worth it to know what I can add to my own life to improve its quality, refine how I look at what "healthy" means to me, and validate good habits."

"Nutrition is and has been a point of struggle in my day-to-day life.
When it was recommended by my primary care doctor, I reached out hesitantly to a few of the nutritionists they recommended. After about two minutes of chatting with Ellen, I knew that she was going to be someone I can trust, talk to, and learn from. Working with Ellen has been a joy and I honestly cannot wait to see how continuing to meet with her changes my life."
