Dr. Supatra Tovar is one of the only licensed psychologists in the world who is also a registered dietitian and accredited fitness expert. Dr. Tovar's unique background and integrated specializations allow her to provide holistic mind-body treatment for trauma, eating disorders, depression, and anxiety for children and adults. Dr. Tovar has numerous scholarly and professional presentations at several national conferences on a variety of health topics, including the detection and treatment of disordered eating, dissociation, weightism, and mindfulness interventions for eating disorders. Dr. Tovar earned her doctorate in psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology and has two master's degrees, a Master of Science in Nutrition and a Master of Arts in Psychology. She is a member of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and the American Psychological Association. Since founding her first Pilates studio almost twenty years ago, she has been designing exercise and nutrition programs as well as helping clients emotionally and mentally heal.

They provide readers and participants with tools to foster a compassionate, mindful relationship with food and themselves, promoting sustainable health and wellness. Through these resources, Dr. Tovar offers a holistic approach that integrates psychological insights and nutritional education, guiding individuals toward a liberated, informed, and healthful life, free from the cycles of dieting and body dissatisfaction.
