Support for Individuals & Families Navigating PCOS, Fatphobia, and Body Shame
🟣 My Practice
I’m dedicated to helping people feel at home in their bodies—without diets, shame, or the pressure to shrink themselves.
My practice centers fat liberation, trauma-informed care, and culturally responsive support. As someone with lived experience navigating fatphobia, PCOS, and chronic health conditions, I know firsthand how much compassion and clarity this work requires.
💛 Who I Work With
Individuals living with PCOS who are:
- Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting health advice and diet culture
- Struggling with body image distress
- Navigating medical fatphobia
- Wanting to reconnect with their bodies in affirming ways
Parents and Families who:
- Want to learn how to support a child or loved one with PCOS without reinforcing shame
- Need guidance on language and boundaries around food, movement, and health
- Are committed to creating a weight-inclusive home environment
🌿 How I Help

- Shame resilience
- Body trust and neutrality

✨ Why This Work Matters
- PCOS affects up to 1 in 10 people of reproductive age.

- Families frequently want to help but don’t know how.
- Weight-inclusive coaching bridges the gap between medical care and lived experience.
