IS THIS YOU?
You might be here because…
You’ve tried meal plans and they never really “worked”
Restriction-shaped "solutions" left you more obsessed, more ashamed, or in a worse cycle than when you started. You're done with that approach.
You suspect your ADHD and your eating are tangled together
Executive function, RSD, sensory stuff, "all or nothing" days — no one's been able to help you untangle how it all connects to food and your body.
You've been overlooked, misunderstood or judged by past providers
You're in a larger body, you’re neurospicy, you're a man, you're queer or trans, you're on a GLP-1 — and you've never had a dietitian truly meet you where you are.
You're a parent watching your teen struggle
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 so did everything else
Pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, chronic illness, ongoing GI issues — so much has changed and now food and body image feel more confusing and overwhelming than ever before.
You want care that sees you as a person, not a number
You're looking for a relationship with a clinician who'll think carefully about you and your unique needs. A provider who is committed to collaborating with other member’s of your team and able to see you regularly instead of every few months.
ABOUT EMILY
Hi, I’m Emily (she/her).
I've been a dietitian since 2019 and I founded Embodied Health Counseling in 2022 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 myself, and I'm a woman who was diagnosed with ADHD later in life. That shapes how I show up: relational, honest, and allergic to the "sick enough to deserve care" gatekeeping that runs through this field.
In the future I plan to return to graduate school to pursue licensure as a therapist. My long-term goal is to become a dually licensed dietitian and therapist and grow Embodied Health into a collaborative space for healing.
Outside of work I'm in Brooklyn with my husband and our two dogs, Murphy and Alfie (who occasionally crash sessions).
Education
Bachelor of Science - Dietetics, University of Minnesota
Master of Public Health, University of Michigan
Dietetic Internship, University of Michigan
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.
INVESTMENT
Honest, upfront pricing
I keep my caseload small and my sessions deeply individualized. Here's what that costs — and how to make it work.
INTAKE SESSION
$350
60 minutes | one-time
FOLLOW-UP SESSIONS
$250
45 minutes | weekly or EOW
Insurance, superbills, and sliding scale
I'm out-of-network with insurance, which means I provide monthly superbills you can submit yourself for possible reimbursement.
I hold a limited number of sliding scale spots. If cost is a barrier, mention it on your consult call. If I don't have an opening, I'll help you find someone who does.
Why Client’s Keep Coming Back
-
"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. You deserve support that goes way beyond a meal plan.
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.

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