About Alaina

Hi, I’m Alaina—registered dietitian, yoga teacher, birth doula, mother of 2, and someone who truly believes that nutrition should feel supportive, not stressful (and definitely not boring). If you’ve ever thought, “I know what I’m supposed to do… I just can’t seem to do it consistently,” you’re in the right place. I’ve worked in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and educational settings, and one thing is always true: nutrition works best when it fits your life, not the other way around. I help individuals and families turn nutrition advice into simple, realistic habits that actually work in real life. No perfection required.

Approach to care

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nutritional Sciences from The Pennsylvania State University and stay up to date on evidence-based research—so you can stop Googling and start feeling confident about your choices. I specialize in chronic disease management (like diabetes and heart health) and women’s health. I have a passion for women’s health, especially prenatal and postpartum nutrition as I know how much your body goes through during major life transitions, and I’m here to support you with compassion, flexibility, and a whole lot of understanding. Here’s the most important part: you don’t have to do this alone. There’s no food guilt here, no strict rules, and no judgment—ever.

Your first session with Alaina

When we work together, your first session feels more like a conversation than a lecture. We’ll talk about your goals, your struggles, your schedule, and even the foods you actually enjoy. Then we’ll create small, sustainable changes that feel doable, empowering, and supportive—because lasting health shouldn’t feel overwhelming. If you want a dietitian who mixes science, compassion, and real-life flexibility, let’s team up and make your health goals happen! 💛 📱@dietitian_alaina
