I met Heather in my mid 20s back in 1997. At the time she had office hours at my gym and I was looking to lose weight. I never would have thought that stopping in to see Heather after a spinning class at my gym would have brought me to so much more; I had no idea what door I was opening. I started seeing her for weekly appointments and soon found myself in one of the most influential relationships of my life and at a time of tremendous personal growth. A desire to look good on the outside led me to Heather who led me to really look within, for the first time, in terms of food and health. She taught me about emotional eating and all the aspects of nutrition one ignores when just wanting to "be skinny" as opposed to healthy. She helped me deal with my specific, complex endocrine disorders (PCOS, Hashimoto's disease), and with how body image, shame, and self-worth manifest themselves in one's behaviors. Ultimately, and better than any psychotherapist has, Heather guided me through dealing with childhood trauma and adult bulimia. Heather is the only person I've met with the qualifications and ability to deal with all aspects of my food: psychology, nutrition, behavior, and spirit. Gaining Heather as my practitioner has been truly one of the biggest blessings of my life; now in my 40s I look back with a perspective of knowing gratitude as I still turn to the tools and insight she taught me.

As time went by and the injuries mounted from being a former athlete, my total body seemed a mere shadow of what it was. Naturally as a former athlete, I always thought it would be easy for me to shed pounds and then get back into shape. I was never more wrong about anything and I can thank Ms. Fitzgerald for all of it. After putting myself completely in her hands and care, the fog of dieting and eating was lifted as she helped me find the root of the problem which was the space between my ears! After time and her encouragement I was able to do things I never thought I would be doing again and after multiple surgeries, broken bones and repaired ligaments, I can never thank her enough. Her approach was all encompassing and, not to sound dramatic, a path of self discovery where body, mind and health all integrated to get me where I am now....... Healthier, more active and happier. I rarely trust anyone...... but I trust her with my personal health and would recommend anyone to do the same...... I have 93 pounds lost to prove it!
