Start feeling more calm, courageous, connected, clear, &content, in your body.

Sadly, it’s not uncommon to feel uncomfortable in one’s own skin. We can’t help but compare our bodies to others, and any sense of self-worth can begin to feel hopelessly tied up in body size. Behind many of us is a long and turbulent history of dieting, sweating, weight-cycling, spiraling, and agonizing in front of the mirror. This struggle against our bodies can control our entire day, take up all our mental, physical, and emotional energy, and it’s freaking lonely!

Nevertheless, we may find ourselves persuaded to try “just one more diet” or pressured to create rules - even around “intuitive” eating! Even though many more of us are learning about giving ourselves permission to eat, we may STILL. FEEL. GUILTY. The idea of allowing one’s body (THIS very body) to be the way it is, feels so far out of reach... But:

You are not alone. And you don’t have to be alone in this struggle anymore.

Meet Emma

Emma Doerner, MS, LMHCA, CN Intuitive Eating Nutritionist, Body Image Counselor in Seattle, WA
 
 

Start healing from being at war with your own body…

My name is Emma (pronouns: She/Her), and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Certified Nutritionist (CN) in Seattle, WA. My down-to-earth style is grounded in Intuitive Eating, Health at Every Size, and fat-positive feminism. I help thoughtful, driven femmes and women stop trying to tame their bodies, and instead tune into their hearts and bellies, and proudly take up some space!

If you’re ready to start feeling more at peace in your skin, drop me a note in the message box for your free 20-minute phone consultation, and I will help you develop an approach to eating, moving, and grooving that makes sense for YOU.

 Who I work with

 I meet people wherever they are on their journey toward healing body image and learning intuitive self-care. Show up as you are without fear of being judged or rushed along in your process. Are you straddling one foot in Body Liberation and one foot in Diet Culture? - that’s OKAY. As a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) and certified nutritionist (CN), I normalize body insecurity and help women and femmes unpack the complex narratives surrounding how we feel about, and thus take care of, our bodies. You’ll learn non-diet strategies to customize food and movement to your unique needs and identities as well as learn how to cope when the world inevitably triggers you to diet again.

My hope is that you learn to engage your own body’s wisdom, and dance to the beat of its drum, nobody else’s, not even other intuitive eaters! If you’re ready to let go of “perfecting” your body and ready to get to know and respect your body like never before, contact me for a free phone consultation.
