About me
As an eating disorders specialist, I empower individuals to achieve physical, mental and emotional well-being. My role as a supportive mentor is to help patients discover their healthiest and happiest version through nutrition and lifestyle changes and personalized one-on-one guidance.
Based on bio-individuality and the concept that we’re all different and have unique dietary, lifestyle, emotional, and physical needs, my holistic approach covers many areas, from exercise and nutrition rebalancing, to a person’s relationship with her/his eating, weight and shape.

EATING DISORDERS SPECIALIST
I have worked for many years now in the fields of eating disorders, eating behaviors (including emotional eating, emotional starving & binge eating), counselling, psychology, nutrition and obesity. As an online holistic health coach, my goal is to help individuals, through gradual, lifelong changes, discover the food and lifestyle choices that will empower their current and future health goals and express their full physical, mental and emotional potential. This will be realized in parallel to healing their relationship with their weight and their shape.
