You're frustrated from trying to eat "clean" and "be good" all day only to have the evenings and weekends derail all your efforts

You don’t have to do this alone. With so much confusing information out there, let me make this easy on you.
You’ve already struggled enough. Isn’t it time to start savoring food and body?
Amanda has taught me to open my eyes to novel approaches to health and nutrition that doesn’t focus on superficial things. She cares about her clients and it shows. I have gained more insight into why I overeat, things I am lacking in my life, and how to feed myself with more than just food. I am excited to continue our work together. My only complaint is that more Nutritionists aren’t like her!
Thanks Amanda!

TAKE THE NEXT STEP
Let’s Try Different Not Harder
I created the SAVOR Strategies of Healing based on nearly a decade of working with women in midlife who struggled to feel at peace with food and their body.
Women who were ready to live healthy lives on their own terms, not cultural ideal beauty standards. Women who were ready to lose the mental and emotional weight of dieting and honor their health with delicious food, joyful movement, and a community of friends who have more to talk about than what they’re not eating.
Every new adventure begins with the first step.
Are you ready to thrive in midlife?

GOT QUESTIONS?
I’d Love to Answer Them!
Do you see people in person or virtually?
Alpine Nutrition LLC is a completely virtual counseling practice and online educator. I started virtual counseling with clients way back before it was COVID-cool to do so for two reasons.
First, I want my clients to feel relaxed in the comfort of their own space. And second, my life is split between two home offices in Washington and Oregon. I love living with the best of both worlds, and I love to work with clients throughout the Pacific Northwest.
How do you typically work with people one-on-one?
This is an excellent question for a discovery call! Your food and body story is unique to you, which means you deserve equally individual nutrition counseling.
To help you undiet your relationship with food and your body, we’ll explore the principles of intuitive eating as they relate to your health goals.
We’ll talk about how stress, the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, and body image relate to making choices about food and exercise. And we’ll dig deeper into your beliefs about food, health, and your body to discover what thoughts hold you back from making food choices with confidence to feel your best in midlife.
My work is rooted in intuitive eating, mindfulness and stress resilience, gentle nutrition, and body respect. I’m a firm believer that all foods have a place at your table and that you have permission to eat foods that satisfy you.
This type of nutrition counseling is about so much more than “eat this, don’t eat that.” It’s about creating a healthy life-long relationship with food and your body by savoring food and your body.
I’d love to hear your food and body story! Click here to contact me personally, and let’s chat.
When does the next group session start?
The next 6-week small group coaching sessions are offered twice a year in April and October.

I have a chronic health condition, is intuitive eating right for me?
Yes!
Intuitive eating and the SAVOR Strategies of Healing are about learning your body’s needs and responding with compassionate curiosity. These techniques work very well for people with chronic health conditions such as eating disorder recovery, diabetes or general blood sugar concerns, elevated cholesterol and heart disease, and digestive issues such as IBS and food intolerance or sensitivities.
Please note because I have a background specialty in eating disorders treatment, I don’t prescribe therapeutic diets for any of my clients.
What do I need to do before my first session?
Before our first session, I’d love to schedule a free 20-minute discovery call so we can get to know each other better. This is an excellent way for me to understand more about your individual nutrition counseling needs and for you to get all your questions answered in real time.
How much time is each session?
Our initial session, where I get to know your food and body story more personally, is 60-75 minutes. All follow-up sessions are 50-60 minutes.
Do you offer evening and weekend sessions?
I work with clients on Tuesday and Thursday from 9 am – 6 pm. Wednesdays are reserved for group coaching sessions and live Q&As.
What questions should I ask my insurance before my first session?
I’m considered an out-of-network provider for all insurance companies. Before our first session, you’ll want to call your insurance company and ask them if you have out-of-network benefits for nutrition counseling.
If you do, yay! That means you’ll be reimbursed a portion of my fees after you pay cash rates at the time of your session. I will give you a receipt that you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement.
