Find Peace with Food: A Holistic Alternative to Dieting That Actually Works

🌿 A New Path to Lasting Wellness: Mindful Eating Over Dieting

Are you tired of the endless cycle of dieting, food guilt, and self-judgment? At the Mindful Eating Institute of Santa Barbara, I offer a different path: one rooted in compassion, emotional healing, and long-term transformation.

As a counselor with a master’s degree in clinical psychology and over 20 years of experience, I’ve supported countless women in breaking free from emotional eating and reclaiming inner peace. My approach is non-diet, holistic, and deeply empowering.

🌸 What Makes This Approach Different?

Unlike traditional weight loss programs that focus on restriction and the number on the scale, the work we do here at the Institute centers around the emotional drivers behind eating. Whether you're navigating stress, loneliness, or lifelong body image issues, we’ll address these gently, using mindfulness, cognitive behavioral strategies, and self-compassion tools.

✨ Key Benefits:

• Break free from emotional eating patterns

• Rebuild trust in your body’s natural cues

• Cultivate sustainable self-care rituals

• Reduce anxiety, overwhelm, and food guilt

• Support your journey with or without GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Tirzepatide

  
  

🧘‍♀️ What to Expect in Your Journey

I offer individual counseling, group sessions, and transformative workshops - both in-person in Santa Barbara and online. Most clients work with me for 3–6 months, creating lasting shifts in how they relate to food, stress, and self-worth.

All programs include:

• Weekly or biweekly sessions

• Mindfulness-based practices

• Food and mood journaling

• Emotional awareness tools

• Self-nurturing action plans

• Life balance coaching
