Support for Every Journey
We specialize in working with those navigating eating disorders and other complex relationships with food. We also support clients on GLP-1 medications who want guidance from a non-judgmental, experienced professional. Our care is trauma-informed, somatic, and always tailored to your unique needs.
FEEL AT HOME IN YOUR BODY
THE WINSTEAD STORY
Finding Home Again
Winstead was inspired by the idea of home. This practice was built on the belief that healing begins when you return home to yourself — to your body, your intuition, and your inner sense of peace. At Winstead, my goal is to help my clients you reconnect with that home within, free from shame and full of possibility.
Maureen Gately
MS, RD, CEDS
A registered dietitian with more than 10 years of experience treating eating disorders, I earned my undergraduate degree in dietetics from James Madison University and completed my dietetic internship at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center.
I'm most passionate about helping clients rebuild trust with food and their bodies. I believe that healing happens through connection, safety, and trust — values that guide every session and relationship I build. My approach combines evidence-based nutrition care with compassion, curiosity, and respect for all lived experiences.
When I’m not working, you can usually find me hanging out with my chocolate lab, Remy, or tracking down concert merch from my favorite artists.
Approach and Values
COMPASSION FIRST
Every client deserves kindness, respect, and understanding. Here, we honor your story.
NON-JUDGEMENT ZONE
We create a safe space where nothing is “too much” to share. No fear, no shame, just support.
COLLABORATIVE CARE
No two bodies or journeys are the same. We move at your pace to support lasting healing.
