Hey friends!

It’s been a while, so it makes sense to do another introduction! And somehow, we just hit 50K! WOWWWW.

I am so very grateful that you are here.

My name is Anna. I am an anti-diet, Certified Eating Disorder Registered Dietitian and Supervisor, Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor and specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image distress.

I talk a lot about eating disorder recovery, diet culture, body reclamation, and why-I-hate-wellness-culture here. I also talk about the realities of living as a disabled human and as a human with a chronic illness.

Increasingly, get ready for this page to be about social justice. Of all kinds. I do not believe that being selectively woke is particularly helpful to anyone. I’m evaluating how I want to show up in the world, and in doing so, plan on sharing what I learn as I go.

I never dreamed of having a social media family like this. And while social media will never take the place of individualized nutrition support, I am delighted to be here, to be human, with you. Your presence here makes a difference, in this community, and to me. So from the deepest of the deep, thank you.

On a personal note, I don’t believe in fate, but I do believe that I was made to do this job.

I would not trade this for the world.

I became an eating disorder dietitian because someone I love lived with an eating disorder. In the last 11 years, I have worked at all levels of eating disorder care, and now exclusively in private practice. I have treated many thousands of people. I remember a lot of names and even more faces.

Thank you for being the greatest of teachers. You’ve made this hard work worth everything.

Instagram fam, YOU, have made me certain that I will be able to continue to do this work I do love, regardless of my degree of disability. What a gift.

I’m deeply honored that you’ve chosen to hang with me. Connecting on social media is a big deal and one that I take very seriously. Look forward to getting to know you!
