I’m Anita (she/her)
I'm so glad you're here!
I'm a registered dietitian who believes nutrition care should be compassionate, collaborative and tailored to you. My goal is to help you build a more peaceful relationship with food while supporting your unique health needs. I meet my clients where they are, creating a supportive space rooted in curiosity and kindness, free from judgment, rigid rules or one-size-fits-all advice.
At Ahara Nutrition Counseling, we offer virtual nutrition counseling for individuals navigating eating disorder recovery, food and body image concerns, chronic illness and other complex nutrition needs. We work with teens (13+) and adults of all genders to create a plan that honors your lived experience, supports your goals and helps you feel more confident caring for your body.
Whether you're just starting your journey or looking for a provider who truly understands the complexities of your experience, I'd love to be part of your care team.
Why “Ahara”?
Ahara is a Sanskrit word that means "nourishment" or "that which sustains us." While it traditionally refers to the food we eat, its meaning reaches far beyond nutrition alone. It reflects the idea that our well-being is shaped by many forms of nourishment. Including our relationships, experiences, environment, movement, rest and self-compassion.
At Ahara Nutrition Counseling, this philosophy is at the heart of my approach to care. I believe that caring for yourself is about more than following food rules or striving for perfection. It's about finding sustainable ways to support your physical health, emotional well-being and overall quality of life while honoring your unique needs, values and lived experience.
Our Specialties
You deserve nutrition care that sees the whole person. We recognize that nutrition is deeply personal and shaped by your individual experiences, health history and needs. Together, we’ll create an approach to nourishment that supports your whole self, not just a diagnosis or a set of symptoms.

Eating disorder recovery is rarely a straight path. We support individuals at all stages of recovery, including those navigating complex symptoms or repeated experiences in treatment.
Our approach is compassionate, collaborative and focused on helping you build a sustainable relationship with food and your body. We often work closely with your healthcare team to make sure your care feels connected, individualized and supportive of your needs. -
Living with a chronic illness can make eating feel overwhelming and exhausting. Together, we'll develop an individualized approach to nutrition that honors your needs, supports symptom management and helps you nourish yourself with flexibility, compassion and confidence.
-
If you're tired of dieting, food guilt or constantly questioning what you "should" eat, you're not alone. Together, we'll work toward a more peaceful relationship with food and your body by letting go of rigid food rules and reconnecting with your body's inner wisdom.
Our Services
Our work together begins with an initial intake appointment where we’ll explore your nutrition history, medical background, relationship with food and goals for working together. From there, we’ll work together to create an approach that feels right for you and supports both your physical and emotional well-being through ongoing nutrition counseling.
