I'm here to help you move forward into a place of peace with your relationship with food and you're body. If you’ve ever felt judged, misunderstood, or asked to follow a rigid diet before — you’re not alone.

Hi! I'm Chelsea. If you've landed here, there's a good chance that food has felt more stressful than peaceful at some point and I want you to know that makes a lot of sense. Navigating food, health, and body in today's world can feel like rocky terrain. Maybe eating has just felt harder than it should, tangled up in noise from the outside world and a whole lot of conflicting information about what you're supposed to do. Whether you’re navigating disordered eating, digestive concerns like IBS, hormonal conditions such as PCOS or endometriosis, a complicated relationship with your body (or some combination of the above), you’re in the right place.

Food can most definitely be fun, but for some it can also be scary, overwhelming, infuriating, comforting, energizing and enjoyable, all at the same time. I am here to help support you in your journey to finding freedom with food and making peace with your body. You are in the driver's seat, but I am here to help steer you along the way in accomplishing your goals. I want to help you learn to embrace the signals that your body sends you, rather than to fear them. And I want to help provide gentle nutrition reminders so that you can fuel your body for all the things you want to accomplish!

Hi friend, welcome! I am so happy you're here & proud of you for taking this step. Navigating your relationship with food, body image, and movement starts with finding a dietitian you feel safe with. You deserve to be heard every step of the way and feel comfortable asking questions without judgment. Think of me as your shotgun passenger, working together with you to steer away from diet culture and reconnect with your body.

I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with a background in Eating Disorders, mental health disorders, sports nutrition/dance nutrition, food allergies and gastrointestinal disorders. I provide individualized care to better support each person and build a sense of security and confidence in their relationship with food and their bodies. I practice from an "all foods fit" and weight neutral lens with a focus on mindful and intuitive eating rather than restrictive dieting. I have worked in various levels of care for eating disorders and mental health support throughout the greater Los Angeles area. I approach care from a weight neutral, non-diet, client centered lens. I work closely with individuals to ensure that they are moving at a pace that works well for them and recognize that everyone has differing needs and preferences when it comes to their care. I focus on compassionate care through a research-based lens. I aim to ensure that each individual whom I work with feels like they are heard and have the space to be open about challenges that may arise and celebrate the successes in our work together.

If you are someone struggling with an eating disorder, disordered eating or dysfunctional and disruptive eating habits, you're in the right place! If you are looking for support at the outpatient level of care, stepping down from a higher level of care, need help with consistency or transitioning off a meal plan, or want to explore how body image affects your relationship with food, I would love to work with you. I have spent my career building a trauma-informed approach for all genders and diagnoses; seriously men, women, non-binary/trans, kids, adults, families, all are welcome! I want you to feel supported wherever you are in life or in recovery. Treatment can feel radical. Eating disorders can be isolating. You aren't alone.

Hi! I’m Maxine, and I’m so excited to meet you! If you’re looking for a dietitian to help heal your relationship with food and your body, you’re in the right place. I practice intuitive eating–based nutrition counseling and embrace the Health at Every Size® (HAES®) approach. If you’ve ever felt trapped by health and wellness culture or like your weight has defined every conversation about your health, I’m here to help you challenge those beliefs and build a more neutral, compassionate relationship with food and your body.

Hi there! I'm Riley, I help individuals navigate the often confusing landscape of nutrition while fostering a peaceful, sustainable relationship with food that honors both physical and mental health. I am passionate about supporting those who struggle with food and body image in breaking free from diet culture and developing trust in their bodies. Whether you are navigating an eating disorder or simply seeking guidance on what and how to eat, I work collaboratively with you to identify approaches that best support your unique needs. I believe food is more than fuel- it is connection, culture, comfort, healing, and celebration- and everyone deserves to experience food without guilt or shame.
