It's time to break free from the diet culture and embrace a holistic approach to wellness that honors your body and mind.
Welcome to Trauma-Informed Intuitive Eating Counseling with Kim Jacques – your pathway to a harmonious relationship with food and your body.
WHAT IS
INTUITIVE EATING?
INTUITIVE EATING IS NOT ANOTHER DIET PLAN-
Intuitive Eating Counseling empowers you to reconnect with your body's signals, fostering a healthier and more sustainable approach to eating that is rooted in self-awareness and mindfulness.
HOW CAN INTUITIVE EATING BE TRAUMA-INFORMED?
This approach welcomes an awareness of how past experiences can influence eating behaviors and body perceptions today. We include a somatic modality called Brainspotting that can help regulate the nervous system. This helps you establish new behaviors and strengthen new perspectives that foster a more enjoyable relationship with food and your body.

TESTIMONIALS
This has been the best non-diet program I have done. I am all about self awareness and thought I had it under control, but this program really opened my eyes. Kim is a wealth of information and is so generous and kind with her time. She really wants to help you with your specific needs. The group aspect of the program is nice for accountability and support in knowing you’re not alone in this. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is trying to be a healthier version of themselves, and who is tired of all the conflicting information out there about weight loss. It’s a refreshing take on really listening to what your body wants and being more in tune with what’s right for you.
If you have any stress or anxiety around eating, or simply want to try a new approach to providing your Mindbody with appropriate nutrition, learning to use your intuitive sense rather than trusting what society dictates is the way to go and this program is for you. It’s more about feeling satisfaction by honoring yourself rather than fitting into your size 2 jeans.
Do it! I was feeling fed up and tired. I remember telling Kim “I just want to eat. I’m tired of tracking, tired of thinking about how much protein I’m getting, tired of worrying about the timing of my food, tired of scrolling through Instagram for the latest nutrition info. Just tired and over it all”. This program helped guide me through a process to begin letting go of rules, letting go of listening to what everyone else says I should eat, and allowing myself to listen to what my body and soul want. It’s a journey that is continuously evolving. I’m so grateful for Kim and this program.
Will you tell me what to eat?
No, not in the typical diet sense. I believe in body autonomy. This process is about you trusting your own body rather than looking towards external rules. An important part of detaching from diet culture is learning what works for your body. I will guide you through a process to learn more about how you feel when you eat different foods and what best supports your body. We will focus on including foods that will satiate you, give you energy throughout the day, and support your mood and taste like self-love.
Is this different from dieting?
Yes, dieting is focused on food restriction with the hope of shrinking your body. This is the “old” way of approaching health and wellness. I created this coaching program because the old ways of “good” and “bad” foods and restrictions were not working for me or my clients. It only created a more stressful relationship with food. I’m guessing you’re probably looking for a plan that offers a fresh new path. This program is based on an innovative, highly-effective, evidence-based approach that allows you to experience more peace, joy, and fulfillment with food and in your life. It allows you to prioritize your physical health, along with emotional and mental health. - which allows you to experience an easeful relationship with food and your body.
Will I lose weight?
Here’s my honest answer…The desire to lose weight is totally normal, that’s what we have been taught- thin equals healthy/good/valuable. Weight loss isn’t bad, but it can get in the way of healing your relationship with food.
I will invite you to spend time focusing on establishing a healthy relationship with food, instead of weight loss. Just to try it out and see how it affects your relationship with food.
By the time women are 45 years old, statistics show that they have tried at least 61 different diets and food plans. As a result, the dieting industry is a 71-billion-dollar industry that has women doubting themselves and their bodies.
After a lifetime of trying to shrink your body, don’t you think it will be a welcome relief to spend time focused on healing your relationship with food and your body? In this program, some people lose weight, some gain weight. Both of those results may be healthy for each body.
This is a weight-neutral program, weight loss is not the focus. Remember that thin does not equal health. Health is defined by each individual. Health is evident in different shapes and sizes of bodies.
Applying a weight-neutral approach to your life is freeing. It allows you to focus on healthy behaviors in your control. It’s a powerful shift.
A NOTE FROM KIM
I wish that I had known what I know now back when I turned 40. As my body began to change my negative self-talk put on boxing gloves and I was caught on the losing end of a crazymaking diet cycle. I’d had a long career in holistic health as a massage & polarity therapist with a background in herbology and nutrition, but what I knew was no longer enough.
The Primal Health Coach Certification expanded my understanding of food, movement & mindset, and how they affect our gene expression. Then studying with Evelyn Tribole, one of the founders of Intuitive Eating, opened my eyes to the mistakes latent within dieting and a weight centric health culture. And finally, my personal experience and training in Brainspotting illuminated a path of emotional freedom.
Allow me to guide you on your path of self discovery,
Kim Jacques
