it shouldn't be this hard...

At Luna Nutrition Therapy, we believe that eating, moving your body, and simply existing in this world shouldn't be that hard—no matter your age. Yet, we know that it often feels overwhelming. Parents are bombarded with unsolicited advice about feeding their children and managing their bodies. Athletes are constantly faced with myths and misinformation that can affect their performance. And for many, the endless flood of conflicting messages about the “right” way to eat creates confusion and frustration. We are a social justice-informed practice, recognizing that the issue lies with the world, not the individual. Our weight-inclusive and neurodivergent-affirming care supports clients of all ages—children, teens, young adults, and adults alike—in navigating a world that has its own challenging relationship with food and body. We focus on building resilience and confidence in your true, authentic self. Just as the phases of the moon symbolize transformation and renewal, our approach to recovery and healing your relationship with food, body, and movement mirrors this cyclical journey of growth and self-discovery for everyone, at every stage of life.
