hi! I’m syd (she/her).
Combining my scopes of practice as a Registered Dietitian (RD) and Clinical Social Worker (RSW, MSW), I offer folks multi-faceted support in navigating their physical, mental, and emotional health journeys.
In today’s world, where disordered eating is glamorized and the thin ideal is shoved down our throats, navigating your relationship with food and body can feel impossible. I aim to empower people with the knowledge, skills, and compassion required to heal these relationships.
I am passionate about supporting communities who are often overlooked in conversations about food and body. I work to ensure my practice is trauma-informed, 2SLGBTQIA+ friendly, fat-positive, and neuro-diversity affirming.
how can i help?
I use a trauma-informed, person-centred approach to support people dealing with:
Eating disorders/disordered eating
Body image struggles
Binge eating and/or emotional eating
Chronic health conditions (PCOS/PMOS, Type 2 Diabetes, Dyslipidemia, etc.)
Mental health concerns affecting nourishment (depression, anxiety)
Eating challenges related to neurodiversity
Weight stigma and discrimination
Trauma (individual, systemic, and intergenerational)
Relational conflict
