The Confident Counseling Skills Course
The Intuitive Eating & Body Image Counseling Skills course for Dietitians & Nutrition Professionals that helps you coach your clients EFFECTIVELY to food & body peace with clarity, alignment, and confidence!
Provides Dietitians with 9 Continuing Education Credits.
Here's the problem, dear...
You've decided to focus your practice on helping your clients achieve authentic health through food peace & healing their body image. Great! The problem? You...
- are not confident in your Intuitive Eating and Body Image counseling skills to do so and have no idea how to structure your sessions
- worry that you'll do more harm!
- don't have a clear method or process to guide your clients through and it feels messy!
- don't have the language to navigate difficult body image conversation and are worried you'll mess up
- keep having clients who are stuck in their healing journey or have been holding yourself back from taking on clients because of your imposter syndrome
- read and resonated with the Intuitive Eating book and depended on it to coach your clients through the process when it was not designed to teach OTHERS how to heal and has not given you the clear method and skills you actually need to do that (read: it feels all over the place)!
The last thing you want to experience is showing up to a client session feeling like this...
I have good news for you!
It doesn't have to feel this way!
What if it went like this...
- You're excited for your scheduled client sessions
- You're confident in your ability to help your clients (or future clients) and ready to support them in overcoming their struggles with food + body image.
- You know exactly how to structure your sessions and meet your clients where they are at in their Intuitive Eating & Body healing journey
- You don't shy away or are afraid of body image conversation, you know how to turn your clients' difficult emotions into transformative moments of healing.
- You build a practice with dream clients and create transformative programs that change lives every day in a way that's aligned with your values and purpose, because you know exactly what you're doing!
My dear, this is EXACTLY what's possible for you!

How is the Confident Counseling Skills
Course different?
Like you, 6 years ago I was full of passion and conviction that rejecting diet culture and helping women find food & body peace was the right and most values-aligned way to practice.
Yet I was completely overwhelmed and lost on HOW to do that…
How do I even start a session? What should I ask?
What if I make things worse?
What if I can't help a client who's feeling stuck (I don’t want to look like an idiot)?
How do I guide them through this when I have no process or structure (it felt messy & all over the place!)?
So I sought out support.
→ I invested in an Intuitive Eating training course which helped me understand the nuance of Intuitive Eating, but didn't give me the skills to coach a real life client through it.
→ I read books, articles, and followed people on social media.
→ I learned the hard way through my own experience of supporting clients, what works and what doesn’t
→ I completed a Body Image course that enriched my counseling skills to help clients work through deeply rooted body image struggles.
The issue?
I had to piece it together from different resources (and at times figure it out on my own after hard earned lessons) in order to have the streamlined approach I have today that is both aligned and effective. And it took me WAY longer than it needed to!
The Confident Counseling Skills course saves you time, money, and headache by putting the entire framework you need to streamline your coaching session - all under ONE roof!
Coaching your clients will feel natural and joyful to you, and you show up with CONFIDENCE (that 'I know what I'm doing' kinda feeling...)

- covers the research in a nuanced way (no extremism here

- with 20+ done-for-you intake forms and handout templates to use with client
all at once!

“[This course] has given me so much more confidence in how I approach tough things with clients. It gave me a better understanding and process for approaching the issues they have. I'm glad that I invested in this so that I can better serve my clients. I have been able to revamp my premiere offer for clients and the way we progress through sessions together, giving me more confidence in working with people in a sort of logical/systematic way to approach and address various issues like food rules. I’m so thankful that Rachel created this course! As someone with nearly 20 years experience as a Registered Dietitian that made a career pivot as far as niche, this material was so beneficial in supporting me in that change!”

Meet Your Instructor
Hi, I’m Rachel!
As an Intuitive Eating Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I’ve helped hundreds of women effectively heal their relationship with food and find body peace.
But I wasn’t always confident in my ability to do so. Like you, I was excited to learn about Intuitive Eating and discover there is another path to health and happiness that does not involve endless food rules, guilt, restriction, and toxic diet culture. But I was at a loss on HOW to help my clients reject diets and food rules and find food freedom.
Over the years, through seeking support, mentorship and experimenting with my own methods, I now have a clear coaching method that effectively helps my clients ditch their food rules and find food freedom.
I also had to figure out what to ask on discovery calls to convert the RIGHT clients and how to structure my initial sessions and follow-ups on my own! There was no one to give me templates or scripts on how to do this well.
I also learned that in order to build a thriving practice and business with transformational programs and coaching, you need to feel confident in what you have to offer and the ability to DELIVER on it! Which means having the counseling skills to do so!
I now show up confidently to help my clients and more importantly, have a structured approach that feels aligned with the work that I do!
I give you ALL the goods inside this course! I give you the shortcut I WISH I had!
You too can have a clear path to coaching with confidence, and I’m excited to share with you HOW inside THE Confident Counseling Skills course for Intuitive Eating Dietitians and Nutritionist.

Is this for me if I've been practicing with this approach for a while?
That depends on YOU. How confident do you feel in your coaching skills right now? Are you feeling overwhelmed or scattered in your process and approach?

I want to build my business, I’m not sure if the next step is to invest in business coaching or in my coaching skills?
If you want to feel confident taking on the right clients and serving them to the best of your ability but doubt your ability and skills to help them, investing in your coaching skills and confidence IS investing in your business as well.

What course graduates are saying...
"I got my certified intuitive eating counselor certification in 2020, but I needed more on how to guide someone through the process in a way that makes sense and wasn’t just random during each session. [Rachel’s] course really did meet my needs. It gave me practical steps to take with clients and ways to coach them when I am feeling stuck. I found the Coaching Funnel Method to be extremely helpful when trying to decide what to work through next with a client.The visual is really helpful to have available to look at when I am trying to assess if it is time to move to the next conversation. "
I felt the quality of the information was well researched and helpful as it was broken down by each topic into easy to digest pieces of information and into easier to understand ideas. I enjoyed this course so much! It really covered every topic I was hoping to learn more about. It gave me practical applications for helping my clients and a resource I can continue to come back to.”
