Welcome to Connected Eating
Since 2001, Connected Eating has focused on helping our clients connect to their bodies and develop an internal sense of trust, nourishment, and self-care. This means mastering eating by listening from within, rather than following an external set of rules.
Although disordered eating isn’t only about food, we believe it’s essential to normalize eating before anything else can heal. Without a nourished brain and body, other therapy isn’t effective. We provide a safe, professional, warm environment where recovery can happen through consistent food exposure and positive eating experiences with guidance and support.
Our trusted team of experts follow a holistic approach, treating the person rather than a disorder and creating a personalized plan for each client based on his or her readiness.
Why “Connected Eating”?
The idea of connected eating is about so much more than nutrition.
- The idea of connected eating is about so much more than nutrition.
- It's about feeling connected to the earth that provides our foundation and the soil that grows our food.
- It’s about feeling connected to the people that help bring food from farms to our table.
- It’s about feeling connected to our emotions without being overwhelmed by them.
- It’s about feeling connected to our sense of hunger, fullness and satiety.
- And it’s about feeling connected to people around, as we eat together.
- This is the full potential of connected eating.

You are extraordinarily kind, patient and knowledgeable and I feel so fortunate to have met you. Thank you for listening, guiding and educating. Tonight I feel the first steps of freedom and it is wonderful!!!
Client
I feel very encouraged by your expert approach. We have tried almost everything to help our daughter- I didn’t think there would be another hopeful intervention until I met you. I embrace any recommendations you offer. Many thanks again for the tremendous work you do.
Client
Things have been going so well for me – I’m happy to say that I’ve really been able to take care of myself here. I’m thankful everyday that I was able to put my troubles with food behind me – and though I know it’s important not to forget that I had those troubles, I’m happy that they are a part of my past and not a part of my present! And it is largely because of you that that’s the case – I know that if not for you, I wouldn’t be living my life as I am right now.
