Becoming ARFID Certified: A Dedication to Understanding Food Aversion
This certification reflects their commitment to understanding and assisting individuals who struggle with extreme selective eating habits. ARFID is a complex condition that often goes unrecognized, but Michelle's certification demonstrates their dedication to helping those who may have been overlooked or misunderstood.

Intuitive Eating Certification: Embracing a Holistic Approach to Well-Being
In addition to ARFID certification, Michelle has also achieved certification in Intuitive Eating. This approach empowers individuals to develop a healthier relationship with food by listening to their body's cues and fostering a positive attitude towards eating.
Why Intuitive Eating Certification Matters:
A Holistic Approach: Intuitive eating goes beyond dieting or rigid food rules. Michelle's certification in this approach allows them to guide clients in embracing a holistic way of nourishing their bodies and minds.
Mind-Body Connection: Intuitive eating focuses on the mind-body connection, teaching individuals to trust their body's hunger and fullness cues. This empowers clients to make food choices that align with their unique needs.
