Hi, I’m Emily, welcome to Recover Newport Beach! I am a Recovery Coach with over 7 years of experience in working in eating disorder recovery. I am very passionate about creating a safe and warm environment with empathy and open communication to help my clients meet their recovery goals and gain freedom from their eating disorder and other problems that are holding them back. I pride myself in being authentic, compassionate, and having a deep sense of connection to this work.

My approach to healing draws from various therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness and Mind-Body connection. I am experienced in working with individuals and families recovering from an eating disorder and co-occurring problems. I am also experienced in supporting my clients with anxiety, OCD, disordered eating, body image and many other personal growth and development goals. I will meet you where you are and tailor my services to help you feel supported in the ways that are most meaningful to you and your preferred life.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Dietetics from Eastern Illinois University. I am active in the recovery community and am a member of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, San Diego and Orange County Chapters of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals (IAEDP), and I serve on the board of the San Diego Women’s Association for Addiction Treatment (WAAT). When

I’m not working, I enjoy going on long walks with my dog Marley, hiking, and trying to bake the perfect chocolate chip cookie, maybe we can have one together one day!

I am currently providing recovery and life-skills services in-person for our Southern CA clients and via telehealth to clients across CA, the US and internationally.
