ABOUT JULIA
Experienced. Supportive. HAES Aligned.

Right now it's estimated that up to 75% of women struggle with disordered eating. In a culture where dieting is "good behavior," we are encouraging a paradigm where food is the enemy, and our bodies dictate our worth. In my own recovery from my eating disorder, I found Intuitive Eating along with a large selection of tools that equip me to live life on my own terms.
​
I am an eating disorder support group facilitator, a Size Diversity educator and presenter, a recovery speaker, an intuitive eating counselor, joyful movement coach, and an eating disorder recovery coach. I am an accomplished coach and certified personal trainer of 8 years adept in motivating clients through positive encouragement, resolving mental barriers, and consistent structure. As a result, I have high retention rates and build strong student relationships that last years. I believe empathy and balance are crucial tools in the health industry, and that success is more easily attained by small, realistic goals that don’t involve shame or manipulating insecurities. Pursuing a happy, healthy life should be enjoyable and confidence-boosting, and imperfect. I enjoy being a supporter along a clients’ path to progress, especially when I get to motivate them through plateaus, self-doubt, and inspire them to celebrate their successes.
