NUTRITION COUNSELING WITH A REGISTERED DIETITIAN NUTRITIONIST
FOR EATING DISORDERS, DISORDERED EATING & BODY IMAGE HEALING IN PENNSYLVANIA & NEW YORK
Hi there! I’m Amanda!
I am a fat-positive, weight inclusive Registered Dietitian and I am passionate about helping people heal their relationship with food and their body.
I believe all bodies are good bodies and that you are deserving of love and worthiness in any body. Sadly, I know that most us have a hard time believing and feeling that. Having an eating disorder, struggling with disordered eating, or even just feeling out of alignment with your relationship to food is time consuming and downright frustrating. It’s all you can think and talk about, and it takes away so much from your life.
You deserve so much more.
You deserve a break from diet culture and that critical eating disorder voice that tells you what to do, how to eat and that you are not good enough unless your body looks a certain way or eats a certain way.
You deserve to take up space and you are worthy of recovery and being loved.
You are safe here.
Amanda's Counseling Style & Approach
In our work, I love to use a combination of approaches during sessions. I take a self-care focused approach when utilizing Intuitive Eating principles, am fiercely anti-diet and Health At Every Size aligned, combining all from a social justice perspective. I am fat positive and weight inclusive, so you can know that you are safe in our sessions from any diet talk or weight loss focused approaches.
Through all of the above, compassion and gentleness are my main methods. We will go at a pace that you are comfortable with and I will always meet you where you are at.
As your provider, I want to learn about you, your lived experience and your journey in life that has lead you here. We will go at the pace as you’re comfortable with and work together to help you find healing & peace.
Amanda's Specialties
Teens (ages 14+) and adults who have active eating disorders, folks wanting recovery from their eating disorder or disordered eating, and those who are struggling with body shame.

Tired of the constant anxiety & thoughts about food, calories, and how to shrink your body
I know that recovery looks different for everyone and together, we’ll figure out what that means to you.
