In general, initial sessions review family and individual medical history. We also explore lifestyle, physical activity, stress, and current food. Everything we do is informed by individual goals. 

For some, our work may be based on education, planning, and navigating logistics.

For others, there may be additional layers to explore (and heal) around thoughts, beliefs, and relationship with self and others. The work tends to be therapeutic – focused on understanding each person’s unique experience. 

Typically, initial appointments are 60-minutes and follow up sessions are 50-minutes.

It depends what state you are in. Some states require licensure while others do not. 

I am licensed in Delaware, Massachusetts, Minnesota, and New Hampshire.  But there are other states where licensure is not required. 

Please contact me for specifics.  

No, there is no requirement regarding how often or how many times we meet. It it based upon individual need. 

I believe in what I do and the services I provide. I have a long history of successfully supporting folks. However health is influenced by more than our individual actions. Therefore, it’s not possible to promise what will happen as a result of our visits together. 

There are situations we may work together to develop a structure and consistent around eating. We may also identify recipes to experiment with. But it is not common to tell people exactly what and how much to eat at every instance of eating. 

I believe in body autonomy – that ultimately, your body is your decision. However, when weight loss becomes the focus of how we move and what we eat, it often leads people to make decisions that are not inclusive of their physical or mental health.

Therefore, I do not put people on weight loss plans for the sole purpose of weight loss. Some people may see weight changes as part of the work together, but it is not the focus of care.
