About Abigail

Hi! I’m Abby, your registered dietitian, and I’m honored to meet you wherever you are on your nutrition journey and look forward to our session! For me, nutrition is more than a profession—it’s a passion. I believe food is one of the most personal and powerful ways we can practice self-care and share that care with others. During my college years, I began to truly understand how deeply nutrition affects our energy, mood, and overall performance. That realization sparked my commitment to helping others create sustainable changes that empower then to make positive choices around food and their overall health. I view food as the most preventative form of medicine and believe our bodies have an incredible ability to heal—when we give them the right support. My goal is to help you nourish yourself in a way that feels aligned, empowering, and sustainable.

Approach to care

I help clients shift from a restrictive mindset about food to one of balance, flexibility, and empowerment. My approach is rooted in understanding your unique needs and challenges, so I can guide you in a way that truly resonates with your lifestyle and needs. I don’t just want to help you reach your goals—I want to help you enjoy the process and build a healthier relationship with yourself, get excited about food, and thrive!

Your first session with Abigail

you can expect personalized nutrition plans, expert guidance, and a partnership that’s focused on your unique health journey. Our first session will be all about getting to know you—your goals, your challenges, and your personal relationship with food. From there, we’ll work together to develop actionable steps that are realistic, sustainable, and tailored to you. I’m here to help you make informed choices, build confidence, and achieve your goals without feeling restricted or overwhelmed. I hope to be an advocate for your well-being!
