More about Bridget

 What is one thing you would want patients to know about you?

I am a problem solver. There are many factors that influence our health, and I aim to find solutions to challenges in your life that may be preventing you from becoming your best self. I counsel in a non-judgmental environment and offer a safe space to dig deeper into health habits.

How do you go about making your treatment plans for FORM patients?

We start with introductions. We discuss your past - what strategies you’ve tried, what you liked and disliked about each approach, and identify other factors that have influenced your relationship with food. Your history can provide vital information on what plan I think may work best for you. Then we discuss the present - your environment, support, diet intake, and physical activity. With this information, we start establishing focus areas and make step-by-step goals that gradually become your diet plan over time.

Why do you love working with FORM patients?

I love how motivated my patients are! Don’t get me wrong, motivation can come and go even with the best of us. But with FORM my patients start seeing real results. They are more hopeful, which drives their momentum into continuing their health goals long-term. Results can be weight loss, but also much more than that. It could look like being able to set boundaries at work, enjoying food without guilt, and feeling stronger and more energized to do the things they love.
