Leigh-Ann has worked in the area of behavioral health and more specifically, eating disorder care, for close to a decade and is certain Magnolia Creek is currently where she is called to serve.
While Leigh-Ann’s nutrition philosophy surrounding restoration and recovery is ultimately founded in planting the seeds of the intuitive eating and health at every size principles, her ultimate goal and desire is to help clients break free from the chains of their eating disorder to rediscover their purpose in who they were created to be.

As someone who has gone through the treatment and recovery process, Leigh-Ann desires to help others discover true freedom and body acceptance in the same way that she was able.
