IS THIS YOU?
You might be here because…
You spend so much energy thinking about your body and it’s holding you back from actually enjoying your life
You oscillate between fixating on what your body looks like to completely avoiding mirrors and photos. You want a way forward but don’t know what that looks like and the advice to “just accept your body” has never landed.
You’re either following a rigid plan or struggling to make decisions and eat for most of the day
Decision making never feels easy. There are always so many factors to consider and it all sounds exhausting. Sometimes hunger is difficult to notice or read or even something you fear and no matter how much you learn about food, it doesn’t change the patterns you feel stuck in.
You're a parent watching your teen struggle but so scared of saying or doing the wrong thing
You want someone who'll work with your kid and include you — so disordered eating can stop running your family’s life and your child can get back to living theirs.
Your body changed and you’re feeling lost and overwhelmed
Recovery, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, chronic illness, ongoing GI issues, can all bring changes to not only how we feel in our body but how it looks. You don’t need a cheerleader telling you to “just love your body”, you need someone that can make space for your body grief. Someone that can help you identify direction an a path forward.
You’ve tried therapy or working with a dietitian and it was disappointing or not helpful. You’re hesitant to try working with someone new.
It’s hard enough to seek out support to begin with. But it’s even harder when you get your hopes up only to be let down and back to square one trying to find a provider that meets you where you are, is reliable and makes you feel safe.
ABOUT EMILY
Hi, I’m Emily (she/her).
I’ve been a registered dietitian since 2019, and I founded Embodied Health Counseling to create a space where clients and clinicians actually feel safe, seen and supported.
I bring lived experience to this work: I’m in recovery from an eating disorder, and I was diagnosed with ADHD later in life. Both shape how I practice, and they’re why I’m especially passionate about supporting people with ADHD as they navigate their relationship with food, movement and themselves.
Many of my clients work with me long-term, and I get to support them through different seasons of life, from early recovery to parenthood to new medical diagnoses. A lot of the people I work with know perfectionism, feelings of inadequacy and a harsh inner critic all too well. The most rewarding part of this work is watching clients build trust in themselves over time, and seeing the moment they start to notice that growth too.
My long-term vision is to grow Embodied Health into a collaborative space for healing, where nutrition and mental health care work hand in hand. I plan to complete my Certification as an Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS) in early 2027. After which I plan to pursue certification as a consultant so I can provider supervision for up and coming eating disorder specialists.
Outside of work, you can find me at a comedy or live music show with my husband, cuddling our two dogs, Murphy and Alfie (who occasionally crash sessions), making beaded jewelry, or re-watching Law & Order: SVU for the seventh time.

WHO I WORK WITH
Specialities
My practice is built around the intersections most providers miss — the places where disordered eating, neurodivergence and medical complexity overlap
-
Disordered eating is often misunderstood, oversimplified, or treated with restriction that often makes things worse.
Emily will help you explore the emotional, behavioral, and biological factors that fuel binge eating and other disordered behaviors, while working toward a more stable, trusting, and sustainable relationship with food.
Disordered eating areas of focus:
ADHD, AuDHD and autistic adults and teens
Parent and teen support for eating disorders
Binge eating
Bulimia
Orthorexia
GLP-1 use in eating disorder populations
Disordered eating pre- and post- bariatric surgery
Body dysmorphia + negative body image
Harm reduction approaches
-
Emily focuses on supporting clients in understanding their unique executive functioning and sensory needs, capacity and heightened responses to rejection, injustice or perceived failure.
As someone diagnosed with ADHD later in life, Emily brings both personal understanding and clinical insight to this work. She helps clients better understand how ADHD and ASD can shape their relationship with food, movement, and body image, while building systems and strategies that are realistic and sustainable.
-
Men are traditionally overlooked when it comes to disordered eating and body image struggles. Yet, nearly 1 in 3 individuals struggling with disordered eating are male.
Emily is passionate about creating safe spaces for men to talk about their relationship with food and their body, as many of the men she works with have never had that. She also supports queer and trans men in exploring the unique body pressures many in the LGBTQIA+ community experience.
-
Emily supports women at all stages of life as they navigate transitions that that can bring shifts in identity, appetite, body image, and self-trust.
Women’s health areas of focus:
Transition to college
Athletic performance
Fertility/Pregnancy/Post-partum
Peri-menopause + Menopause
PCOS
Auto-immune conditions
Ongoing GI concerns - IBS, MCAS, chronic constipation, GERD, gastroparesis
Emily is also passionate about creating safe, trauma-informed spaces for women that have experienced sexual assault or interpersonal violence. Although she is not treating the trauma herself, she has seen first hand how intersectional this can be with women’s health and disordered eating.

What It’s Like to Work Together
-
"Emily is a godsend, and one of the main reasons I've continued eating disorder recovery this long....
What has most stood out to me is the way that Emily walks the line of what we should talk about to further my recovery whilst giving me agency in when I talk about those things. I made it clear at the onset of working with her that I do not trust dietitians, and she changed that.”
-
"Emily was the first dietitian to see me and not my body....
She made me feel safe while also helping me hold space for ED thoughts.
She's well-educated, emotionally intelligent, and passionate about what she does. Those of us in fat bodies, shamed by dietitians in the past, or fearing of being judged by being honest...that stops at Emily's practice”
-
"Emily is a godsend - wise, knowledgeable, compassionate and very professional.
She has the ability to get to the core of the issue with great insight. I am very grateful for her guidance, support and patience. She's awesome!!!”
Common Questions
-
We are an entirely virtual practice supporting clients in California, New York as well as a handful of others states. Reach out to learn more!
-
A free 20-minute consult call to make sure we're a good fit on both sides → a 60-minute intake → follow-ups, usually weekly to start, then biweekly as you're ready. Collaboration with your therapist or other providers is built in.
-
Teens get 1:1 time with me, and families get joint or separate calls. My goal is to equip teens with the knowledge, curiosity, and supportive environments to thrive long-term while supporting age-appropriate independence and autonomy.
-
I'm trained to support medical diagnoses alongside your relationship with food. These are almost always connected, and the broader medical system tends to miss that.
I take a holistic approach where these pieces are supported while simultaneously exploring your relationship with food, movement and your body.
-
GLP-1s can be a useful tool for some clients. My role as your dietitian is to consult and support you in making informed decisions about your health. That way, you can consider all options available to you and understand the possible risks, benefits and mindset necessary for a GLP-1 to support you and not cause harm.
I focus on bringing curiosity and openness to these conversations while also creating space to explore any underlying body image distress, shame, loneliness, frustration and even stress that you may exist in your decision-making.
-
I do support clients in generating meal ideas and a framework for eating that is sustainable but that is often only a starting place in our work together!
If you are only looking for a meal plan or meal ideas, I’m probably not the dietitian for you. I work relationally and holistically, because our relationship with food usually mirrors our relationship with ourselves.
Let's see if we're a fit.
Schedule a free, 20-minute call to discuss where you are and whether working together makes sense.
Not ready to schedule? Send me a note instead.
Fill out the form, and Emily will be in touch within 1–2 business days with next steps.

Our practice is out-of-network, which means we do not bill insurance directly. We can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement.
