Hi, I'm Amy Gardner.

...I am a certified eating disorder registered dietitian and yoga teacher from Boston. I combine over twenty years of clinical experience and personal recovery experience with psychology, mindfulness, sensory motor and yoga training to help my clients move into full recovery. I am the owner of Metrowest Nutrition, LLC, a multi-disciplinary group practice where I supervise clinicians around helping individuals heal their relationship with food, movement and body image. 

I am the author of the book iMove, Helping Your Clients Heal from Compulsive Exercise. Through the iMove program based on my book, I lead movement groups and trains other clinicians how to use the iMove method in their own work.

 

 

“Amy Gardner has written a personal and poignant account of how she has healed from compulsive exercise, expanded her life opportunities, and has moved into a place of peace with intuitive movement. But this is not simply a recounting of her experience—it is a clear and precise, scientifically-based template for any healthcare professional who would like to help their clients find the joy that comes with healing their relationship with movement. I highly recommend this book!”

"Amy Gardner's book is a superb resource for clinicians and clients. I learned so much reading it and will recommend it to every clinician who sees clients with compulsive exercise, with or without a comorbid eating disorder. Thoughtful, vulnerable, inclusive, and offering clear strategies to use tomorrow, this book will help countless people!"

Why Am I Giving This Book Away For Free?

Because my goal with this book is to help more people than I possibly could just through my training program. I’m able to give it away for free because many of my readers are so impressed with the contents, they join my training program in order to help their clients improve their relationship with movement.
