I'm an integrative recovery specialist for binge eating and food addiction

I empower smart, ambitious women to break free from the grip of bingeing and cravings—so they can reclaim their power, feel clear and grounded, and live out their unique, wild journey of life. Through a revolutionary, body-based method blending abstinent nutrition, mindfulness, and sensory tools, I offer a comprehensive toolkit for lasting food freedom, resilience, and radiant health.

Behind-the-scenes

On the heels of completing my PhD, I’ve been brewing up something big.

Soon, I’ll be releasing a full suite of recovery resources designed for women who are smart, self-aware, and so done with the binge–shame–repeat cycle.

This isn’t about white-knuckling it—or green smoothies.

It’s a body-informed, biology-backed approach to real healing.

I help you optimize mental and physical health, repair metabolism, and regulate your nervous system in real time.

Recovery lives in your whole system—not just your thoughts.

This is deep nourishment.

This is where recovery becomes sustainable, embodied, and truly yours.

Curious? Hopeful? Does something resonate?

Good. You’re my people.

"I can't express how grateful I am to Kristina for helping me on my recovery journey. Her approach is so unique and holistic. Mindful eating and somatic strategies have made a huge difference for me. I learned to trust myself and my body again, and I've seen a significant reduction in my binge eating episodes. Kristina is truly dedicated to helping others and it shows in every session. I feel really grateful to have an ally in her."
Sandra N.
"Before working with Kristina, I felt trapped in a cycle of binge eating and self-loathing. Her coaching provided me with the tools and support I needed to break free. The focus on interoception and body awareness was a game-changer for me. Now, I feel more connected to my body and more at peace with my eating habits. Kristina is an incredible coach who truly understands the struggles of binge eating and knows how to guide you towards recovery."
Emilie B.
"Working with Kristina on mindful eating has been a truly transformational experience. Before I started, I struggled with compulsive eating patterns and felt totally out of control with my food. Through her compassionate and insightful guidance, I learned to become more aware while eating and this newfound awareness has empowered me to make more mindful choices and significantly reduce my binge episodes. Kristina's support has been invaluable, and I feel more confident and at peace with my eating habits than ever before."
