emily would be a good fit if you...

want a dietitian who will understand how neurodivergence can interfere with food choices

things you should know about me

I strive to create a kind, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where clients can build confidence and find ease in their food choices. Authenticity and humor are very important to me, so you might catch me in our sessions sprawling out across my chair or making silly jokes. When I'm not in dietitian-mode, I love losing myself in a video game or a book for hours, showing off my cooking skills to family and friends, and connecting to my spirituality by practicing yoga or spending time outside.

education and community

I completed my Bachelor's and Master's of Science in Human Nutrition and Foods as well as my dietetic internship at the University of Houston. I currently work in inpatient mental health treating clients with eating disorders. I also have several years of experience in residential eating disorder treatment, partial hospitalization programming (PHP), and intensive outpatient (IOP) levels of care.
