"Before starting Emma's program, I struggled with overeating and feeling out of control around food, experienced high stress and anxiety levels, and often felt uncomfortable in my body. Then, Emma showed me how to eat in a way that makes me feel more energized and satisfied with my choices, while still enjoying myself and not having to "give up" anything I love.
My clothes are fitting better and I am feeling more comfortable in my skin. At my doctor’s appointment this week my doctor was very impressed with my weight, cholesterol levels and the best news was that my blood pressure top numbers went from an average of 135 down to 117 necessitating the halving of my high blood pressure medicine dose. I was surprised because this is the first time I have achieved a healthier state without working or suffering to get there. It just seemed to happen without effort!
The most significant results I have achieved from working with Emma include a healthier state of being, feeling in control around food, a greater sense of relaxation, self-awareness, less anxiety in my daily life, and a more intuitive understanding of my body's needs. I still have a way to go, but Emma has been giving me the tools to be successful. Each session I meet with Emma I come away with new insights, realistic action items that become my new normal, and so many impactful wow moments. Emma is kind, empathetic, non-judgmental, very knowledgeable and has a gentle way of leading one to important self-discoveries."

“One of the most rewarding steps I've ever taken was to engage Emma Hertzberg as my Nutritionist/Health Coach. My main goals were to add more wholesomeness to my monotonous meals and boost my energy. To my astonishment, in the 5 weeks that I've been working with Emma, those goals have long since been surpassed and additional benefits appear to be endless. With her nonjudgmental guidance and individualized approach, she has encouraged my intuition and attention towards my relationships/reactions to food. No cookie-cutter lists of "good foods" vs "bad foods," but instead unwavering support while I learn to trust myself in exploring what's right for me.
During all the sessions she shares information and ideas based on our weekly discussions, and has an uncanny sense of when I'm ready for the next useful fact or suggestion. In addition, her input has expanded my awareness way beyond diet. New-found motivation and enjoyment have emerged by my exercising to music and improving my environment.
This level of success is due to Emma's natural ability as a coach, along with deftly applied facilitation skills and a passionate commitment to her clients' well-being. Her constant and compassionate empathy creates a safe environment in which I can express myself openly and honestly. And as a result, new issues are continually uncovered and addressed. I could not ask more of a coach and would recommend her to anyone who desires increased health and vitality."

“For years I have struggled with feeling comfortable in my own body, coping with stress, feeling energetic, losing weight and eating and living a healthier lifestyle, and without knowing it out of touch with myself. Working with Emma, I've learned how to eat foods that will nourish my body, give me energy, and will make me feel great about myself. I did not think it was possible to change my mindset to a positive one where there is acceptance for foods, love, and nourishment, but through this journey it is all I have found through Emma's support.
The most significant results I've experienced from working with Emma are being able to eat what I want without restrictions while allowing myself to understand what my body truly needs. It's been the journey of learning how food can impact my mood, energy, and life overall. I learned about stress coping mechanisms and how stress has an impact on my health. I learned to accept, appreciate, love and nourish myself more than I could have imagined.
Since day one I felt supported, understood, and was given a safe space that empowered me to develop and release. Working with Emma has given me this and more than I could have expected from this experience.“

“Before coaching with Emma, I struggled with making healthy food choices, experienced some body image issues, and often felt dissatisfied with meals, resulting in low energy and difficulty staying on top of my busy schedule. Then, Emma taught me how to eat in a way that keeps me satisfied and energized, and while I did lose some weight, I discovered that having a healthy relationship to food/body is more important than a number on the scale.
The three most significant results I've experienced from coaching with Emma are confidence that what I'm eating is supporting my health/body, being intune to my body's needs, and having a healthier relationship to food/body, which has given me greater confidence in myself.”

“I began Emma’s program because I was searching for some extra support and guidance in my journey to overall improved health including my eating habits and physically getting in shape. Emma taught me how to lose weight in a sustainable, intuitive way. She has a balanced approach between teaching and listening.
I was able to apply her lessons daily and soon started feeling better in my body. Not only did Emma cover nutritional information, but she also dove deeper into psychological behavioral habits and ways of thinking such as anxiety, stress, and coping mechanisms.
After completing the 12 weeks, I feel confident in my newfound ability to know what my body truly needs and how best to support myself. Furthermore, I have gained a new level of awareness into who I am.
Thank you, Emma!”

"When I first started Emma’s program, I was 25 pounds overweight, felt tired a lot of the time, and struggled with overeating. I am now 7 weeks into my work with Emma, and have lost 22 pounds. My clothes fit me better, and I feel lighter and more energetic."

"If you’re struggling with your diet in any way, I’m learning it’s just not worth struggling when you don’t have to. I have IBS and low iron, and I was struggling to navigate which foods were good for me and which foods weren’t. I contacted Emma and started her program and let me tell you, I wish I had started sooner. If I could get one message across to you it’d be this: If food is a struggle for you, for any reason, don’t let it be. Contact Emma. She individualizes her entire program for what you want specifically, and she really knows what she’s doing. You can expect her to give you her time and energy for your unique and personalized experience.
I’ve only been working with Emma for a few weeks now and I am already feeling so much more confident in my ability to choose foods that are best for my body. Not only that, but I am learning to be more in tune to what my body needs and when. Emma doesn’t say “eat this” and “don’t eat that” (which is what many of us imagine when we picture seeing someone about our diets). She focuses on the mindset and purpose behind what we are eating.
This isn’t some awful diet program- there’s no power struggle over what to eat and what not to eat. Emma helps you build a positive relationship with food and learn what will positively impact your body. This is about building the lifestyle you want for yourself. Emma is not only willing to help you get to the lifestyle you want. She WANTS to help get you there. Her passion and enthusiasm for what she does is unmatched, and I will certainly be her client for many years to come.”

“My work with Emma has been incredible. I have struggled with goal setting for better eating habits for so long and I now feel like I am on the right track.
Our weekly action steps and goals have helped me to build new habits that are better for me! I have already noticed changes in my mood and even lost a bit more weight. I love that the goals are easy and adjustable and Emma makes learning about what works for my body fun and engaging.”
- Sarah Miller, Bethesda MD
“I'm honored to be writing this for Emma. I started her program 12 weeks ago as a breastfeeding new mom to a 6 month old going through chronic unresolved stomach issues and unhealthy thought patterns about food.
I was emotionally fragile and unable to speak up for myself. Emma's program has changed my life. To list what her program has done for me...
1. I can stand up for myself
2. My confidence has increased
3. I'm not afraid of food and eating, I'm empowered by it!
4. I've healed my previous toxic relationship with food (binging).
5. I know what my body wants to eat, when it wants to eat, and have confidence about the food choices I make.
6. My chronic stomach issues are now gone, especially since Emma's program helped me advocate for myself until I got a medical diagnosis.
7. My thought processes are more positive.
8. I found a hobby that I love (Pilates!)
There's 100 more changes that Emma's program has made for me. I can't express my gratitude for her. DO IT. If you are questioning it, DO IT. It will financially even itself out. My confidence in eating has made it so I don't eat out like I used to. The program pays for itself. I love Emma and can't wait to continue on this journey with her. I hope you join too!"
