You want to feel confident and at ease with your choices, but you haven’t yet learned to incorporate enough to enjoy the freedom from the dieting trap, health worries, and solid meal planning. Don’t worry, we are all vulnerable in this culture!
- You’re tired of obsessing over your health, weight, and what to eat feeling, like you are getting nowhere.
- You want to get off the roller coaster ride and take care of yourself with ease and comfort that's sustainable.
- You’ve tried everything to feel better: diets, therapy, and so called “sensible plans”... but nothing yet has worked in the long run.
- You want information you can trust.
If this sounds like you, struggling with this is NOT your fault!
Trauma can feel crazy making. Whether from your home, school, or our diet culture at large, trauma is the root cause of this chaos impacting your health and food choices.
How do you know you’ve suffered from this type of trauma? You can recall one or more of the following:
- Criticism about your body, eating, or health concerns
- Forced to diet or exercise as a kid - it could still be with you!
- Experiencing uncertainty about having enough food day in and out
- Rewarding, punishing, or to manipulating food or meals
- Criticism for speed of eating, amount of food eaten, or food choices
- Forced to clean your plate or eat specific foods

“I've been consistent with working out and trying to eat better.”
“I just wanted to thank you so much for the tools you've given me and for helping me reparent myself. I really do think that reaching out to you was the best thing that I've done for healing myself and growing to be a better person. Oh, and today I've officially lost 91lbs! I've been consistent with working out and trying to eat better. And now that my husband is seeing you too, we're both eating more veggies! Again, thank you so much for everything!

“Group sessions are a practical and economical way for me to continue my work with Kathleen”
“Kathleen limits the number of participants in groups so everyone feels comfortable and has a chance to share and be heard. These groups have become a valuable reminder to me that my health and well-being are important. I am intentional about prioritizing and scheduling them into my workday, and it’s amazing how much more balanced and focused I feel at the end of each one. It’s nice to set aside time for myself.
I have never considered myself a “group person” but Kathleen’s groups are different. She creates a safe, open, supportive, and friendly environment with every class. She is a superb leader, offering participants a path and ensuring everyone in the group can keep up.
There hasn’t been a single group session where I haven’t come away with important insights into my own behavior. Group sessions are a practical and economical way for me to continue my work with Kathleen beyond individual sessions. I’ve participated in several groups to date and consider them an ongoing part of my self-care practice.”
