About
Marissa
Marissa is passionate about helping folks get back in touch with their personal food palate to help them feel their best in body and mind while working towards their health goals. Her diverse experiences in clinical and community nutrition allow her to work with folks in all walks of life. As a mother of two, she especially enjoys helping moms appreciate and nourish their bodies while feeding their families and cultivating a positive relationship with food..
Approach to care
Marissa is committed to creating a safe space to explore how food fits into life from a holistic lens, exploring how movement, stress, and sleep act as levers of health that may shape food choices. She works from a non-diet lens and helps folk identify habits and behaviors that encourage progress towards goals. As a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, Marissa guides her clients in applying the principles of gentle nutrition and intuitive eating. Her goal is to help folks get back to eating with enthusiasm and nourishing their bodies, stop obsessing about food, and make more space for focusing on the things in life that matter most.
In your first session, Marissa's goal is to learn as much about you, your health history, social factors, lifestyle habits and current health goals. She'll also help you explore your dieting history and and progress towards deeper questions that can help uncover thoughts and behaviors that may be keeping you feeling stuck. Together, you'll work to define a plan of action tailored to your personal needs and goals.

Marissa is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist passionate about helping folks escape our diet-centric culture and get back in touch with their personal food palate to help them feel their best in body and mind. As a mother of two, a space that’s near and dear to her heart is helping moms appreciate and nourish their bodies free from guilt. With so much pressure (internal and external) placed on mothers, as well as the massive physical and emotional changes that women go through, personal and family food choices can become a major trigger of stress.
No matter who you are, Marissa believes that your weight does not determine worth and is not the sole indicator of health. Healthy behaviors can be cultivated at any size, and eating can be fun and pleasurable while also supporting your health.
As a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, Marissa helps people apply the principles of gentle nutrition and intuitive eating. Her goal is to help folks get back to eating with enthusiasm and nourishing their bodies, stop obsessing about food, and make more space for focusing on the things in life that matter most.
