Hi, I'm Caitie!
I’m originally from New York City, now based in London, and working with clients
from all over the world.
I'm a registered dietitian, body image counselor, breathwork facilitator,
fitness instructor, and yoga teacher.
So yes, I will help you figure out what to eat, with meal planning and clear, science-based nutrition education. But I’ll also help you digest stress, heal from burnout, and start experiencing life with your whole body.
This is nutrition counseling AND nervous system regulation.
The dietitian in me keeps us grounded in nutrition science (no detoxes, no nonsense). The body image counselor, breathwork facilitator, and yoga teacher in me works with what a meal plan can’t reach: the stress you’re carrying in your body, the part of you that’s always bracing for the next thing, the stuck feeling when you know what to do but can’t follow through.
I also went through a serious eating disorder myself, and came out fully recovered. I know what it's like to struggle with food and body image. And I know what’s possible on the other side.
My goal for you is: dance-in-your-kitchen, present-at-the-dinner-table, didn’t-have-to-try-hard kind of free. Whenever you're ready, I'm here for you!

My Story
I grew up in New Jersey, right outside of New York City – surrounded by a lot of love, and also a few things that built a slightly wonky foundation for self-care. Things like: Catholic guilt, ballet recitals, a parent navigating addiction, and, of course, the no-carb, no-fat diet culture of the ’90s.
All of that taught me that being “good,” being thin, being high-achieving – and knowing how to read every room – was the way to find peace. But eventually those smart little survival skills stopped being adaptive. By age 15, I developed an eating disorder too serious to ignore.
At age 18, a therapist told me I was “good to go” from my eating disorder treatment. But the truth was messier. I was eating according to my meal plan like a teacher’s pet, but I hadn’t untangled the deeper stuff: the belief that discipline was holy, that perfection was necessary, that reading everyone else’s emotions mattered more than feeling my own....and that gaining “too much” weight would be the worst thing I could ever do. So it’s no wonder that my idea of wellness stayed tangled up in all that.
When I went off to college, I swapped being a dancer for being a fitness instructor. I started teaching Zumba, Pilates, and yoga anywhere that would have me in between my classes at NYU. Life looked great – and honestly, a lot of it was great! I loved teaching fitness. I had amazing friends. I studied abroad a few times. But I was still hyper-aware of my body, still chasing compliments, calories, and control. And every few weeks, I’d crash; anxiety through the roof, digestion in chaos, skin flaring up, binge eating that left me wondering what was wrong with me.
On paper, I looked healthy. But my body was whispering: "something’s off!" And I kept trying to fix it through more discipline, more Pilates, more Paleo diets.
Then one day, while writing a research paper, I stumbled on a book called Intuitive Eating. It introduced me to nutrition rooted in science and body awareness instead of calorie counts, diet plans, or discipline. It was the beginning of some real healing. It was the first time I realized that peace might come from trusting, not trying to outsmart, my body.
As I worked myself through the Intuitive Eating framework, I began to truly heal my relationship with food and exercise. I
even started to release my fear of weight gain – for real this time.
And that liberation inspired me to teach fitness differently.
I created FIT 4 All, a little organization that brought joyful fitness classes to New York City communities – no diet talk, no punishment, just feel-good movement. We borrowed basements and community centers, danced to loud music, and laughed a lot
It was chaotic, scrappy, and full of magic. FIT 4 All ran for four years until the pandemic closed our venues in 2020. I told myself it was okay – I was stepping into my “real career” anyway.
By then, I had finished my Master’s in Nutrition, become a Registered Dietitian, and started a virtual private practice, which became full quickly.
Within months, my client roster was full. I was “making it.”
But behind the scenes, the emotional weight of my clients’ stories, the pressures of entrepreneurship, and a few personal heartbreaks were piling up. I couldn’t cope by controlling food
or fitness anymore – so I found a new coping mechanism: overworking. I became the “perfect helper” instead of the “perfect eater.” New York City hustle culture rewarded it, and the pandemic made it easy to bury myself in it.
Eventually, I found myself face-down on my living room floor realizing that I’d been intuitive with food and movement –
but completely ignoring my intuition everywhere else. It wasn’t just about intuitive eating or exercise anymore. I needed intuitive living.
That’s when nervous system regulation entered the chat.
I had walked away from the Catholic faith I was raised in years before – abruptly, dramatically, and without a plan for what would replace it. At first, that felt freeing. No more rigid rules or holy guilt. But I also realized I’d thrown out the good parts, too– ritual, reflection, surrender. The parts that help you process feelings and trust something beyond your own control.
So I started “microdosing” spiritual practices. I journaled. I meditated. I lit candles at night. I took deep breaths before sessions. I went to sound baths. I turned kitchen dance breaks into a ritual.
For the first time, I realized that peace doesn’t come from gripping tighter or planning harder. It comes from being present, feeling your feelings, and letting your body and soul have a say in your choices — not just your brain. Intuitive Eating taught me to listen to my body around food. These practices helped me listen to my body, period.
Eventually, I trained in breathwork, meditation, and Reiki because these practices genuinely changed me — and I wanted to understand why. When I stopped saving intuition just for food and exercise, I started letting it guide everything. Life began to feel softer, more honest, and actually mine.
In 2022, I packed up my New York apartment and started working remotely across the U.S., Central America, and Europe – following my gut instead of what made logical sense. Somewhere along the way, I met my (amazing) husband, an English man, and eventually landed in my new home: London.
Following my intuition didn’t just change how I lived – it changed how I felt in my body. For the first time, I felt truly embodied. Not in a “look at me” kind of way, but in a “wow, I can actually feel, taste, and experience my life” kind of way. I realized healing isn’t just about letting go of the fear of weight gain; it’s about dropping into your body, letting sensations flow through, and finally feeling alive.
When I think about what helped me stop shifting my need for control from one thing to the next — and finally feel good in my body — it really comes down to two things: practical nutrition and nervous system regulation. The practical side is about no-drama, science-backed ways to eat well and feel steady, without guilt or overthinking. The nervous system regulatio side is about grounding rituals that help you process big feelings, release tension, and hear your intuition.
That’s what led me to create Full Soul Nutrition — the space where those two things meet. I talk with clients about carbs and protein, but also boundaries, burnout, and breathwork. Because real body confidence and relief don’t come from control; they come from letting your body and soul have a say in how you care for yourself, not just your mind.
In a world full of quick fixes and weight-loss injectables, I hope to offer a cozier alternative – a space to treat yourself kindly and build habits that actually last.
I like to say I’m the Ted Lasso of dietitians – not just because I’m an American who recently relocated to London, but because I work with heart, humor, outside-the-box methods, and plenty of dancing in between sessions.
My goal is to help you feel fully alive, not just “fine” – and at home in your body, not just “good enough.”
I’m here for you if you’re tired of fighting your body and just want to feel at home in it; if you’ve spent years cycling through diets, restriction, or food guilt; or if you’re craving grounded, compassionate support with nutrition, body image, and the messiness of life itself.
My Values
-
I believe in a highly individualized approach. I pull from an extensive toolkit of certifications and trauma-informed techniques to facilitate a unique experience for each person I work with.
-
I believe in a relaxed, relatable counseling style. I sometimes disclose insights from my own life because I want to sit beside you and form an authentic human relationship with you
-
I aim to acknowledge my privileges and limitations as a straight-sized, cis, white provider. I am committed to learning from individuals with different lived experiences than my own (including you), so that I can provide the most validating care possible.
-
I will never judge, shame, or pathologize body size. Your body is not a problem to be fixed. Your body is your home. Your body needs to be nurtured, not fixed.
-
I believe there are better ways to assess health than body weight. To assess your progress, we'll track your energy levels, your blood pressure, your lab tests, your digestion, your quality of life, your mental/emotional health, and many other markers apart from your BMI.
Some Fun Stuff
-
I dance… a lot. Dancing is my favorite reminder that joy doesn’t need to wait for the “perfect” circumstances. It can happen right now; in your living room, in your jammies. That’s why my podcast and Substack are called Deep Breaths & Dance Breaks.
-
I live with Celiac disease and a life-threatening nut allergy. Which means: gluten-free, nut-free… but still loving food! These “limitations” taught me that joy isn’t about a perfect menu; it’s about embodiment, connection, and savoring what is still available to me (and yes, I can support you if you live with these conditions too)!
-
I genuinely love life. Not in a sugarcoated way...but in a bring on the plot twists, heartbreak, and unexpected joy kinda way. I don’t believe “everything happens for a reason,” but I do believe in finding meaning and purpose in what we go through.
-
A few of my favorite things: Drinking coffee, watching sunrises, creating playlists for every vibe, dancing everywhere, eating french fries, laughing with my friends, and being a Scorpio.
