Kayla Fitzgerald
Hi! My name is Kayla Fitzgerald and in addition to being a Registered Dietitian, I am also a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. At Locomotion Fitness, I work with clients from all over as we offer in
person, phone and HIPAA compliant telehealth options for your appointments.
I use a Health At Every Size (R) approach to counseling nutrition clients because healthy looks different to everyone and it is made up of more than just the number on the scale. We focus on cultivating behaviors that enhance physical and mental well being instead of following external food rules or fad diets.
I didn’t always practice this way though! When I first started working in nutrition counseling I used the “traditional” nutrition model where I had clients log food or follow meal plans I created in order to keep their caloric intake right where I thought it needed to be. Clients would initially see success but over time they were unable to maintain these lifestyle changes we were making. They became frustrated and I did too! I learned about Intuitive Eating and when I found out that it was evidenced based I knew I had to learn more. I spent months learning from the creators of Intuitive Eating and ultimately became a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. With this approach, I see clients thriving and finding happiness with their body and the foods they are eating.
I would love to have the opportunity to know you better and work together to incorporate long term nutrition and self- care habits into your life!
