It’s taken me a while to not connect my worth to my size.

But at long last, I grew tired of dieting. As someone who has struggled with disordered eating, learning to become a mindful eater has sometimes been a rocky journey. 

These days, mindful eating has made my life far richer and more enjoyable. I’d love for you to relish in this same peace with food and eating. Inner peace enhances every aspect of your life and enables you to be in flow with life’s Universal Energy.

Are you ready to stop dieting?

As a dietitian, people tend to make interesting and sometimes inaccurate assumptions about me and my work: I’m the food police. I don’t allow myself to enjoy eating fun foods. We should all be on a specific diet. Or heartbreakingly, I’ll be judging you. 

Not even close! 

My clients tell me that they feel comfortable and understood, right from the beginning.

And the truth is: there are a lot of “right “ ways to eat well, but most of us could use a little bit of help. I love when people finally feel good in their body so they can live the life they are born to live. Being in service brings inner peace.

While most of us would love a quick fix, lasting change is in the little habits that we build over time, with practice and support. I like to say that baby steps over time yield big results, and my clients agree.

As a lifelong learner, my nutrition training didn’t end with my nutrition degree and internship. I will forever be seeking new skills and strategies to be able to better empower my clients. You deserve it. This means that you get the value of years of experience, trial and error distilled into your personalized plan to success. 

And since most of us do like a jump start, we have plans that start with a full-body restorative program, too. 

My team and I cannot wait to connect with you. Through our work together, you’ll be happier and healthier than you’ve ever been before.

Our Core Values

We value all people having the opportunity to awaken their full potential.

Your health is your greatest wealth.

Nothing is more important than that you feel your best.

    Kelly Richman, MSW, LCSW, CCTP

    Kelly has a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Rutgers University and a master’s degree in social work from Monmouth University with a specialization in clinical practice with children and families. After originally pursuing a degree in teaching, she took one general psychology class and knew that she had to make the switch! A lifelong desire to better understand the human mind and how people relate to themselves, others and the world around them quickly developed. After years of working within community mental health settings, Kelly decided to pursue her dream of helping others find their voice, feel empowered, and work through self-limiting beliefs by opening her own counseling practice. She has completed training in trauma informed care, and is a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. With a continued desire to learn and bring the most effective tools and techniques to her clients, she is currently pursuing certification in intuitive eating.

    In recent years, Kelly has made it her mission to help people heal, embrace their individual strengths and work towards reaching their personal goals by providing a warm, safe and supportive environment. She currently specializes in working with women who may be experiencing anxiety or depression, are navigating major life transitions, may be having difficulty finding a sense of fulfillment or purpose within their lives, or are struggling with self-esteem and body image concerns.

    After years of working to combat the diet mentality and find true peace within her own body, she felt inspired to help others do the same. It was clear just how much work needed to be done regarding the connection between self-worth and physical body appearance, and she was up for the challenge! Working from a body positive approach, clients are supported as they work to develop new beliefs surrounding the way they view themselves. The ultimate goal is to help clients not only make peace with, but also develop a loving, compassionate and healthy relationship with the body that they are currently in. Kelly is excited to team up with Vitality and continue this work in order to help as many people as possible!

    When she is not working with clients, Kelly enjoys watching the sunset on the beach, walking by the water, spending time with friends, writing and traveling.
