Testimonial

My husband and I decided to begin working with Kaitlin because we had both been through the dieting/restricting/binging cycle so many times and were exhausted by it. We wanted to learn to trust our bodies and to not demonize food. From the first moments of working with Kaitlin (the initial phone call and onboarding questionnaire), I knew we were in the best hands. Kaitlin is such a good listener, and she really tailored our sessions to what we wanted them to be. After our first official session I felt like a weight had been lifted - I knew that what we were experiencing in terms of our relationships with food were normal and that there were steps we could take to improve those relationships. My husband and I have both grown in so many ways since working with Kaitlin over five months. I am more in-tune with my body than ever before, paying attention to when I'm hungry and how certain foods make me feel. I'm enjoying the freedom of grocery shopping without looking at labels or stressing over calorie count. I never realized before just how much mental energy I was putting toward thinking about food, worrying about food, and feeling guilty about food. The freedom that I've gained has led to feeling more at peace. I don't get stressed about family gatherings with cake and ice cream, I am able to say "yes" to eating out with friends without feeling guilty about what I'll eat, and I don't beat myself up for enjoying a food that I'd previously categorized as "bad for me." Kaitlin has given me the tools that I need to have a positive relationship with my body and with food, which is something I've wanted for a very long time.
