I know that deciding whether to invest in nutrition therapy is a meaningful financial decision. I never take that lightly.
If your insurance doesn't cover nutrition therapy, or only covers part of the cost, deciding whether to move forward becomes a personal decision. There isn't a right or wrong answer, only what's right for you.
I also know that many of the women I work with have already invested significant time, money, and emotional energy trying to feel better around food and their body. They've purchased books, meal plans, gym memberships, wellness apps, supplements, or started over with "one last diet," hoping this time would finally be different.
Nutrition therapy is different.
Rather than giving you another set of rules to follow, our work focuses on understanding the patterns that keep you feeling stuck and helping you build a more peaceful, sustainable relationship with food and your body.
Healing isn't something that happens overnight, and I can't promise what your journey will look like. But I can tell you this:
I've never had a client tell me they wished they had waited longer to begin healing. I have, however, sat with many women who wished they'd started sooner. Not because healing is easy, but because they hadn't realized how much of their life had been spent thinking about food, their body, and whether they were "getting it right."
If cost is one of the biggest things holding you back, I understand. Financial decisions are rarely simple.
If you're unsure, I'd encourage you to reach out. I'm always happy to answer your questions so you can make the decision that's right for you.
No matter what you decide, I hope you remember this:
Food and body image aren't supposed to take up this much space in your life. You deserve support.
