Body Image Coaching | Kate Brock CNS, LDN

Intuitive Eating Coach & Body Image Counseling

Your relationship with food should not dictate every facet of your life. Unfortunately for many, it does. I’ve been in your shoes, and I understand the importance of finding nutrition that suits your lifestyle and empowers you to have a healthy, sustainable approach to nutrition.

Hi, I'm Kate Brock, CNS, LDN!

I am a trauma-informed, weight-inclusive virtual Licensed Dietitian-Nutritionist who helps women all over the U.S. heal from disordered eating and body image issues. I’m committed to helping you break out of the diet cycle and nourish your body without restrictions or complexities.

As a dedicated nutritionist and body image coach, I am passionate about helping women heal their relationship with food and make peace with their bodies. I combine my extensive nutrition knowledge with therapeutic tools to help you achieve sustainable behavioral change that sticks.

My coaching programs and one-on-one counseling teach you how to fuel your body without guilt, fear, or obsession. Through this lens, I also work with women to both understand and solve their gut and hormone concerns. I firmly believe that having a healthy relationship with food is foundational — no matter your individual nutrition goals.

READ MORE ABOUT MY STORY

I know what it’s like to struggle with mental and physical health. From a young age, I struggled with digestive issues and mental health challenges. I feared going anywhere because I thought I was either going to get sick or have a panic attack. After years of struggling, I was diagnosed with IBS, asthma, Generalized Anxiety Disorder with depressive symptoms and a multitude of other GI problems. I was told there was nothing they could do for me except give me medicine and send me on my way. The medicines I was prescribed made me feel worse and I felt completely helpless. Was I going to feel like this for the rest of my life? I was living at 50% of my potential because of my sicknesses and felt like there was no hope. I no longer enjoyed my passions and out of desperation for feeling better, I started searching for my own answers. After healing my IBS completely and eliminating a large amount of my anxiety symptoms with nutrition and lifestyle, I decided to change careers and give other people that hope as well.

After being in the nutrition field for a little bit, I developed orthorexia. I was obsessed with everything I put in my body because I was terrified that french fries, a cupcake or anything that wasn’t completely “clean” was going to set off my IBS or anxiety. 2 years of being obsessive over everything created an entirely new problem and I didn’t know how to get out of. I was constantly thinking about foods that I “shouldn’t” eat and couldn’t even keep ice cream in the house without wanting to eat the entire pint in one sitting. Slowly, I let go of food rules and allowed myself to eat intuitively. I had already done the work to heal my gut and adding these foods back in that I thought would cause loads of inflammation (thank you diet culture) were tolerated well because I had already done the work to heal my gut and create a nutrient dense diet.

I aim to provide the balance I never had with my clients. I love clinical nutrition and helping people reduce inflammation and increase nutrient density in the diet, but I also recognize that there has to be a balance or the scale will tip and new problems like disordered eating can arise. I myself have achieved this balance and love helping other do the same.

“I worked with Kate every other week for a little over six months starting at the beginning of 2022. Three months after I’ve ‘graduated’ I am amazed at how much better my relationship is with food and with myself. Food used to have an immense amount of power and control in my life and I constantly felt guilty and ashamed. Through working with Kate, I have developed compassion for myself and my body. I know how to make educational nutritional decisions and I can enjoy food and experiences that used to give me a lot of shame and anxiety. What’s been amazing is how much I use the tools she gave me this long after our work together - the little choices that felt like mountains feel easier every day. Working with her changed my life.”

“Kate is the best! She's extremely dedicated to her clients and makes you feel heard and supported. She's been such an amazing resource in helping me heal my relationship with food both emotionally and physically. I couldn't recommend working with Kate enough!”

“I’ve been working with Kate since January. I still have more journey ahead with her, but I can already say with 100 percent confidence that Kate has changed my life. She has shifted my entire perspective and helped me dramatically change my relationship with food after a lifetime of dieting (including “non-diets” like Weight Watchers). I already feel so much lighter mentally. Prioritize yourself and commit to working with her, you won’t regret it!”

“Kate helped change my life! I had been lost in PCOS TikTok and discussion boards for almost a year, so exhausted, frustrated and honestly hopeless. I was lucky to have found her while searching for a nutritionist near me. Her approach is thorough, empathetic and more importantly —practical. All the advice I had seen online was overwhelming and unrealistic for me. I could barely get out of bed, let alone cook PCOS friendly meals 3 times each day. She helped me get to the root causes of my symptoms and provided me with real life examples of what I could do to help myself. If you need help and are struggling, don’t wait — book with Kate now.”

“Kate has been so patient and wonderful about helping me learn how to eat healthily through education and intuitive eating. She has also given me excellent guidance on addressing my GI health which, I would have not been as knowledgeable on what to ask the GI doctor on my own. She recommended possible functional testing to begin a discussion with both my GI and PCP doctors. I look forward to continuing to work with Kate and would highly recommend her.”
