Welcome. I’m Marlena Tanner, RDN, CEDS-C.

As a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist and Supervisor, it is my mission to actively guide each of my clients through recovery by providing the support, compassion, and tools needed to achieve a healthy balance of the mind, body, and spirit. I’m dedicated to understanding and empathizing with each individual’s unique perspective and positively influencing their perception of their True Self. The longer I spend in this field, the more drawn I am to giving back by supervising and educating other clinicians to carry on this work. I am proud of the team we have created here at the Yellow House Project.

And we are the Yellow House Project…

 

Combining years of experience, highly-developed intuition, and a deep level of understanding, our team helps people overcome eating disorders through personalized nutrition counseling.  


 
 

Eating disorders take many forms, all equally deserving of attention.

Through nutrition counseling, you’ll learn how to nourish your physical body and emotional well-being. We take a non-diet approach to treating all types of eating disorders, ranging from restrictive disorders to overeating disorders.

 

For Clients

No eating disorder symptom is too large or small. If you feel like your inner understanding has become clouded by your external image, you’ve come to the right place.
