Ali Beckman

Hi there! I’m Ali, and I’m passionate about helping individuals build a calmer, more trusting relationship with food and their bodies. Whether you are navigating recovery from an eating disorder, healing from chronic dieting, or managing conditions like Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes, my goal is to provide a supportive space where food stops feeling like a source of stress and begins feeling like a source of nourishment and connection.

Throughout my career in eating disorder treatment centers across all levels of care, ranging from residential leadership to outpatient counseling. I’ve gained extensive clinical experience treating eating disorders, ARFID, complex body image distress, and comorbid psychiatric diagnoses. I specialize in working with young adults and adults, taking a holistic, weight-inclusive, and trauma-informed approach that honors every aspect of who you are: social, environmental, biological, and behavioral.

Grounded in Intuitive Eating principles and a weight-neutral framework, I work collaboratively with you to challenge rigid food rules, repair your body image, and create individualized nutrition strategies that fit your real life. You bring the expertise of your lived experience, and together we’ll create sustainable, meaningful change without guilt or judgment.

Your session with me: Expect a highly individualized and collaborative approach where we look at the whole person. We’ll explore not just what you eat, but how social, environmental, and behavioral factors shape your relationship with food, moving at a pace that meets you right where you are.

My energy: Warm, compassionate, grounded, and clinical yet approachable.

Outside of the office: You can usually find me spending time outdoors, working in my garden, or hanging out with my two dogs, Petey and Mike.

Fun/meaningful fact: I am an iaedp Approved Supervisor (CEDS-C) and love presenting nationally on topics like diabetes care in eating disorder recovery, compassion-focused movement, and challenging food rigidity.
