Hi, I’m Stephanie Willard!

Master’s Level Registered Dietitian and Certified ARFID Specialist

By working through a non-diet, Health at Every Size® lens, I hope to inspire self-compassion and connection. You are not alone! I am here to guide you toward a healthier and happier relationship with food and your body.

I prefer to meet my clients where they’re at and encourage small, sustainable changes. I practice harm reduction techniques when working towards abstinence of ED behaviors isn’t realistic, effective, or my client’s goal. I encourage starting NOW with small changes that empower you rather than waiting for the right moment to make drastic changes. If you struggle with an eating disorder, a small step might be keeping this tab open, or requesting an appointment. I’m ready when you are!

I believe in fostering a safe and non-judgmental space where we can work together to rebuild a healthy relationship with food, promote balanced nutrition, and restore confidence in eating.

“My mission is to inspire self-compassion and connection and to guide you toward a healthier and happier relationship with food and your body.”

– Stephanie Willard

Why “Forward”?

What other way is there to go? Your past does not define you, nor does it get to decide how you will live in your future. As long as you continue taking steps, big or small, you’re still moving forward!

This might look like taking a walk to the mailbox after a few days stuck inside; choosing to eat in a way that fuels your body for one more meal today than yesterday; or choosing joyful movement instead of an exercise that doesn’t inspire you!
