About Alexandra

Hi, I'm Allie - I have a husband with Type 1 diabetes so I have a special passion for diabetes education & nutrition therapy, but I also have a huge passion for the French way of living hence the main inspiration for my approach: mindfulness, food exploration and variety, and overall health improvement.

Approach to care

General health-promoting behaviors with mindful eating at the center and all with an individualized, whole-person approach. I encourage people to eat more plants while meeting them where they are. I help people explore, develop & maintain a healthy relationship with food & exercise as well as encouraging variety and progress over perfection! This gives you support to make sustainable lifestyle changes that improve your overall health & wellness.

Your first session with Alexandra

We start with questions regarding your medical history, health concerns, medications, lifestyle eating habits and from there work together to set some goals. Although it takes a handful of sessions to get a thorough assessment and really get to know you, I like to lay a solid foundation for our work together in this first session. We will talk through where you've been to get you to today and begin to uncover what's underneath your medical, food, and/or body image concerns so we can help you heal from the inside out. My hope is to be able to identify key areas to begin our work together by the end of this session and if appropriate, some small actionable steps you can take moving forward.
