**NAMES ARE NOT SHARED TO PROTECT PATIENT CONFIDENTIALITY**“I did lose is the stress of eating. The guilt when I had a treat or something that I would call crappy. A very unhealthy relationship with the scale, working out, food and myself. Through the 12 weeks I learned what I thought was a healthy lifestyle was in fact causing me and my family unnecessary stress. I now workout because I love it. I eat when my body tells me it’s time regardless of the time on the clock. I purchase treats and food for my home that I enjoy. Throughout the process I learned that when I limit my body from food (all kinds) because of self control that it caused anxiety that I was doing something wrong by having dessert. I am a stronger mom and friend because of the lessons Cortney has taught me. Each week I looked forward to our conversations. It was never judgement or I know more than you attitude. She generally cared about helping me achieve goals i didn’t even know I had.”— former client
I have spent nearly 20 years of my life hating my body. I have experienced so many changes to my body throughout the years and came to be at war with myself, constantly wishing I was smaller. I tried fad diets and "research-based" diets and everything in-between, but all it ever did was leave me feeling miserable. I criticized myself daily. I needed something to break the vicious cycle and to help me accept myself, no matter the way my body looked in the mirror or what size was on the tag of my jeans. Cortney gave me the tools that I needed to: 1. understand my hunger cues for the first time ever 2. find body neutrality (and even some body positivity -- which I would have never dreamed of!) and accept a spectrum of positivity and negativity, with tools to navigate days that might have a disposition toward more body negativity 3. challenge my mindset around food and body size, deconstructing the familial and cultural values that I had placed on myself based on the things I ate or the number on my scale 4. and most importantly, give my mind space and freedom around the ways that I nourish myself, starting with the foundational things that are the things that I eat and the way that I move my body.”

“My life has taken a remarkable turn since I started working with Courtney. Before I began my sessions with my Courtney, I was always filled with stress and an overwhelming sense of guilt every time I thought about my meals and snacks. I was trapped in a cycle of dieting, constantly restricting what I ate, and feeling horrible about myself in the process. There was a lack of balance and control in my life. However, since I started working with Courtney I've learned how to take control of my actions, thoughts, and emotions, especially those negative ones that used to haunt me during mealtimes. I now savor and enjoy every meal without guilt, appreciating the nourishment and pleasure that food can bring. The burden of constant dieting and body image concerns has lifted, and I'm embracing a more balanced and joyful approach to life. This shift in my body image has been a key component of my overall transformation, and I couldn't be happier with the progress I've made.Today, I can confidently say that I feel in control over my health, my life, and my thoughts. The burden of constant dieting and food-related guilt has lifted, and I'm embracing a more balanced and joyful approach to life.”

This program has been absolutely life changing. Because of Cortney I have learned to trust myself around food. I learned how to listen to my hunger cues and choose foods that help keep me full. I no longer struggle with binge eating at night and if I do eat too much, I don't shame myself for it. I know how to leave food on the plate if I'm full, and go back for more if I'm still hungry. I have a closet of clothes that actually fit me and I can get dressed in the morning with ease. I know how to shop for clothes and focus on how it feels on my body instead of what number or size it is. I've learned body neutrality and body positivity. I've learned simpler plans for meal plan and meal prep that make it much more approachable. Cortney breaks everything down so simply into actionable steps. I cannot even believe how much progress I made in just 12 weeks, this program is absolutely amazing. And I love that I know Cortney will always be there supporting in the future!

I no longer battle with my body image, because I've finally won the war.
