Progress one step at a time
My values
In my opinion, each individual must change at their own pace and according to their own abilities. During my individual sessions, I apply motivational interviewing because it helps my clients achieve their goals step by step.
The climate of trust is also essential for changing eating habits. It is important that each person walks in a warm atmosphere and that they feel listened to, with empathy and without judgement.
What should I expect during my meetings?
My Philosophy
A personalized follow-up!
At LauGau Nutrition, we will discuss with you your story and your needs in a safe environment and adapted to your current situation.
Your follow-up will be individualized and linked to your objectives in order to allow you to find the pleasure of eat without guilt. Our approach is to help you discover that eating freely via intuitive eating is possible!
Here are the ten principles of intuitive eating advocated at LauGau Nutrition
The verb eat
Reject the dieting mentality that creates false hope
Consider the feeling of fullness to know when to stop eating
Stop categorizing foods as “good or bad”
Honor your health and taste buds with your favorite foods
Respect your body as it is now
Honor your hunger when it is moderate
Live your emotions without necessarily using food
Allow yourself to eat all the foods you want
Discover the satisfaction and pleasure of eating
Be physically active for fun, not to lose weight
The principles of intuitive eating presented by Tribole E. and Resch E. Intuitive Eating. 3rd ed., St-Martin’s Press NY, 2012.

Live fully
My mission
My goal is to get you to eat to live and not live to eat…
Personally, I strongly believe that it is useless to fight against the needs of your body.
For what ?
Because your body is supposed to be your ally for healthy weight management!
I want my clients to rediscover the pleasure of eating intuitively, without guilt and with confidence.
I want you to feel good in your body and live life to the fullest!
In short, food is not supposed to take up all the space in your life!
