"I used to binge on sugar and hate myself for being out of control and at the mercy of food. I now eat vegetables three meals a day and have been off refined sugar, sweeteners and alcohol for 6 months.
I used to hate cooking - I now enjoy shopping at the farmers market, planning and preparing meals for myself and others.
Changing your relationship to food takes time, it takes patience, it takes repetition and it takes support.
Alice worked with me, through ups and downs, she listened and she counseled. She gave sound advice (sometimes hard to hear) and practical tips I could put into action.
At the end of the day, nothing changed until I was really ready to make it change. Thanks to Alice, when the time finally came for me to change, I had the tools in my kit to do it right and make it last.
There were lots of times when I was in doubt. I could not see my progress, I could only see failure and frustration, I wanted to give up - it was at those times that Alice was the one who saw where I really was in my journey.
No matter where I get to in my relationship with food in the future I will always remember to be kind to myself, to listen to my body and to be happy with where I am at - and then take it from there."

"Alice's nutrition services go beyond looking at food groups- it is about how I feel about my food, my body and my life. I have made significant progress in the months I've been seeing Alice. I come from a past of severe diets and deprivation in some and Alice has taught me how to eat.
Here is what has changed:
1. I am no longer depending on a scale to let me know how I feel about my body
2. I try new whole foods
3. I eat dark greens daily and finding creative ways to add them to many types of food- and ENJOYING them
4. I cook more as opposed to microwave or eating out
5. I am finding nutritious ways to eat after a day when I've eaten sugar or something else that stirs up a craving.
6. I say nice things to my body
7. I am being more gentle with myself
8. I am cultivating patience
9. I am curious about what and why I eat something instead of just doing it unconsciously.
10. I am having fun with food!
Alice is a joy to work with and I highly recommend her."

“Alice is a true healer. Her presence alone is calming and soothing. I first worked with Alice when my own health issues surfaced. She helped me fall back in love with real food and get started on my healing journey. She also inspired me to become a health coach! Alice is an inspirational role model, teacher, coach, real-life angel and beautiful soul."

She is a pleasure to work with as her humor and warm spirit create a comfortable and welcoming environment. Still her questions are poignant as she's able to get at the heart of the matter in a caring way. It's not an exaggeration to say that working with Alice changed my life.”
