Food can feel better. For you and your family.

You care deeply about nourishing your family, but perhaps food has become a place of worry, friction, or simply too much work. Somewhere in all that caring for everyone else, your own needs and enjoyment may have gotten lost.

Private coaching is a space to bring all of it. The practical questions, the complicated feelings, the things you’ve tried, and what you wish could be different.

Together, we can find ways of eating, feeding, and caring for yourself that feel good and work in your actual life.

What we can work on together

You might come with one specific challenge or a feeling that something needs to shift. Our work could include:

  • Your relationship with food and your body. Understanding the beliefs and experiences you carry, making sense of conflicting advice, and building trust in yourself.

  • Feeding your children with more confidence. Working through picky eating, food worries, and tension at the table while supporting curiosity, connection, and growing independence.

  • Making daily food life more manageable. Finding rhythms for shopping, preparing, and sharing the responsibility that fit your family and your energy.

  • Creating a family food culture you enjoy. Making room for pleasure, participation, and connection, with your needs included.

There is room here for both the deeper conversations and the very practical question of what to do about dinner.

Support shaped around you

One of my favorite parts of private coaching is getting to know the details of your life. What matters to you. Where you feel stuck. What comes naturally, and what takes more energy than you have right now.

With over 15 years of experience, I bring a background in psychology, holistic nutrition, and eating psychology, alongside my own lived experience as a woman and mother. We can explore what’s underneath a recurring struggle, try a practical shift, and work with what you learn along the way.

You don’t need to arrive with a clear goal or know exactly what kind of help to ask for.

Figuring that out can be part of our work.

Our son used to eat everything when he was younger, but as he turned 4, 5, and now 6, he was getting pickier and pickier.

I have a background in holistic nutrition and food is very important to our family, so it made it even harder that I have a picky eater. I can honestly say that I'm so happy I decided to work with Deena.

Her well of wisdom runs deep and her energy is really calm, directed, and easy to interact with.

In the end, what I uncovered is that fear was creating the exact dynamic I was trying to avoid. This realization was what I needed to shift out of the paradigm around food and start to make more embodied choices about food and meal times. Deena was with me every step of the way. I'm really grateful for how she shows up for her clients. This process has been truly eye-opening and I can't thank her enough.

Let’s start with a conversation

In a free 30-minute consultation, we’ll talk about what’s happening for you and what you’d like to feel different. If working together feels like a good fit, I’ll recommend an approach and share the details and pricing so you can decide.
