Hello! My name is Kaitlin, I use she/her/hers pronouns, and I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. I work with adults (18+) who need support for diagnosed eating disorders, chronic disordered eating/dieting, or with folks who just want to explore the feeling that “something isn’t right” in their relationship with food and their body. I exclusively take a weight-inclusive, anti-diet approach, which is firmly rooted in Health at Every Size principles; I firmly believe that this is the only ethical, evidence-based way to approach this work. I also draw heavily from the Intuitive Eating and Eating Competence frameworks. In addition to addressing eating disorder behaviors, I can also support folks with practical skill development in areas such as meal planning, grocery shopping, and basic cooking techniques.

In our work together, we will discuss your experiences with eating and dieting, your food culture, feelings about body image, and so much more. My goal is to help you explore your values in these areas as we seek to understand what things don’t feel like they’re working for you. Together we’ll help you develop the skills to nourish yourself in a way that honors your body and your lifestyle, while reducing shame and guilt around food and movement. Ultimately, my goal is to help you develop a peaceful, relaxed, and empowered relationship with food and your body. At the end of the day, food is important, but it’s just food; freedom from an oppressive and deadly diet culture is what we are working towards. I look forward to getting to know you and walk alongside you in this difficult and rewarding work.

Outside of work, you can find me out exploring the trails and lakes of Western Washington, planning my next camping trip, or enjoying the best bagels Seattle has to offer.
