Annette Sloan is a Food Freedom Coach and Emotional Eating Educator who helps women and teens to make peace – not war – with food. After wasting her energy on trying to be the perfect picture of health for over 10 years, Annette finally created a healthy relationship with food when she replaced the shame of “should” with self-awareness and compassion. By taking a mindful approach to eating, Annette helps body-battling women break up with binges, rediscover the pleasure and joy of food, and slow down to savor life. Annette is based in Denver, Colorado, but works with women all over the world 1:1 and through her signature programs, Make Peace With Food and Food Freedom Book Club. She has been featured in The Huffington Post and Mind Body Green. In her free time, you can find her in warrior pose, watching waves, or napping with her American Bulldog, Annie, after a readathon.

Certified Natural Juice Therapist
Certified GDV Practitioner (measure of human energy field)

My name is Becky Fontenot and I am a Certified Eating Psychology Coach and have just completed my training with the Institute for the Psychology of Eating. I have always had a passion for food, cooking, and nutrition but simultaneously suffered from disordered eating. The result was a love/hate relationship with food and body image.

I so want to share all that the Institute for the Psychology of Eating has taught me so that any who suffer with similar issues can restore and transform their relationship with food and be free of toxic nutritional beliefs. Stop fearing food and appetite and start nourishing yourself!

I have been interested in mind/body health since I was a child. This work is very personal.

I experienced digestive issues as a newborn baby, which has impacted my ability to eat and digest certain foods. I was diagnosed with asthma and have had respiratory issues most of my life. I began struggling with body image and eating challenges at a young age. I can remember as a young, 10-year-old ballerina, that I didn’t “fit in” with the others because my body was more developed. Therefore, I started dieting at age 10 years old.

As a result of the digestive issues, body image challenges, and many pounds of weight gain and weight loss, I have experienced fatigue, mood swings, obsessions with food and exercise, low self esteem, depression, and anxiety. The thoughts that took over my mind for so long were, “I’m not good enough. I’m not pretty enough, thin enough, healthy enough, fit enough, talented enough, fill-in-the-blank enough…”

I reclaimed my health in my mid 20s. I gained back my sanity in my 30s. I decided to find which foods, types of movement, mental health exercises, and spiritual experiences worked for me, in my life. I began to reframe my thoughts and focus on what IS ENOUGH for me, in my life. I decided to let go of negativity, and welcome positivity in order to grow- through the good and “bad” times. Because of my past struggles, I have been on a journey to help others affirm their health challenges and repair them.

Education:

I have a Masters Degree in Counseling and Human Services (M.Ed.) and a Specialist Degree in School Psychology (Ed. S.). With this education, I am able to understand human behavior and intellectual/cognitive abilities. I have worked in community mental health, school counseling, and a psychiatric hospital. I also have an Eating Psychology Coach certification from the Institute for the Psychology of Eating. This certification provides an additional element to mental health that is more holistic in nature.

My journey is a story…one that brought me to become a Mind/Body Nutrition Coach. Encompassed in my story is a book filled with endless pages about my inner travels to find health. To places that speak of how I feel in my body and the peace I seek in living day-to-day. Through my studies with IPE, my struggles to find this place of peace with who I truly am are healing. My journey is now to guide others. Are you ready to find the quiet calm your body needs, to reclaim your true self with food, and the energy brought forth from within?

I mostly work looking at the relationship between disease/behaviors and emotions. I use different methods like hypnosis, reiki, meditations, thetahealing, etc in order to get new neurological paths in the brain for a change in the behavior.

We all deserve to live in beautiful abundance – body, mind, and spirit. Are you living the healthy, happy, and fulfilling life you desire – free, energized, and inspired every single day? Many people have neither the knowledge nor tools to make sustainable changes on a day to day basis, both in their personal lives and in the workplace.

I am grateful to be able to serve people by offering help in different dimensions of their lives: health & nutrition, stress, spirituality, sexuality – all integral to this beautiful embodiment here on Earth. Learn to cultivate and integrate a practice into daily life in a simple, PLEASURABLE, and effective manner. Alongside certification from IPE, I am a RYT200 from Abhaya Yoga and train with David H. Wagner of Living Meditation.

I hold my MBA and Masters in Foreign Service from Georgetown University and have experience working with the corporate sector (men/women) and the nonprofit sector (at-risk youth and young women).

Since 1999 I have been offering Clinical Hypnotherapy, Psychotherapy, Counselling and life coaching in the UK, as well Hypnosis for Childbirth and Children’s Therapy. As a graduate of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating I specialize in issues relating to weight loss, digestion and related emotional eating issues.

I use a range of techniques from Dynamic Eating Psychology, Mind & Body Nutrition, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprogramming (EMDR).

I work in a variety of ways to enable clients to change beliefs, habits and phobias to more helpful, confident and successful beliefs and habits. My work is solution focused.

I am a member of the British Society of Clinical Hypnosis (BSCH), National Council for Hypnosis (NCH), National Society of Hypnosis & Psychotherapy (NSHP) and the Complimentary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) in the UK.

Now certified as an Eating Psychology Coach, she is expanding her practice to help individuals open up to a new conscious way of eating through the Dynamics of Eating Psychology and Mind/Body Nutrition. Let Carynne help you awaken to your “true authentic self” and reclaim your personal power through your relationship with food!!

Who am I? This is exactly one of the questions that has brought me to IPE and has allowed me to become a coach in Psychology of Eating.

I am a woman, I am a mother, and I am 51 years old. I have experienced life in many countries and have loved mixing with multiple cultures.

I am at a crossroad in my life where I want to give back to other women and children especially, lending them my time, my undivided attention and my belief in them.

I believe in the power of a tribe and want to surround women and children with a cocoon that would not only protect them and make them feel at peace with themselves but also prepare them to grow and blossom into a beautiful human being.

I am on my own journey and am looking to embark with others on theirs, hand in hand. At the end, it is much more fun to travel with a group of like minded people than to stand alone at the starting line, not knowing where to go.

Relaxing Into Life

After 20 years of dieting, body image issues, digestive issues, and stress, I found myself thinking that there had to be a better way. I started to question my body – if it was smart enough to create itself, wouldn’t it also know what my perfect weight should be? These questions and self exploration led me to The Institute for the Psychology of Eating. I enjoy nothing more than sharing all I have learnt in taking the step into a harmonious relationship with yourself and your body and your life.

Hi, my name is Christine. I’m an Eating Psychology Coach, a Wholeness Guide, and the creator of hummingbird food (HF) – a holistic wellness company dedicated to WHOLE living. Throughout the course of my 30 years of life, I’ve had a very toxic, love/hate relationship with food and body, and my overall self-image. The Institute for the Psychology of Eating crossed my path at the perfect time, and for a very beautiful reason. I came to the realization that perhaps I’ve gone through all of these challenges so that I could one day help others dealing with the same or similar issues. I feel incredibly lucky to share the profound wisdom I’ve gained with anyone out there in search of a little guidance and lots of love and light.

Whether it’s weight or body issues, health challenges, food obsession or an extremist pattern that has taken over your life, diving deep into what’s behind all of this, is the work I love to do!

I know firsthand, through my own personal journey + the work with over 1000 clients through my wellness center of 11 years & private practice that there are many hurdles & blocks that can be preventing your success in any of the areas above including emotional clutter & confusion, mental chatter & chaos toppled with physical ailments such as weight loss resistance, fatigue, stress or other health challenges.

My desire is for you to experience eating in a way where:

-Your Body is Strong
-Your Mind is Sharp
-Your Soul is Nourished

And, living in a way where YOU are energized, have a zest for life plus, radiantly glowing both inside and out!
