About Althea
Hello! My name is Althea, and I bring over 20 years of experience as a registered dietitian nutritionist. During this time, I've had the privilege of working with numerous people, particularly those dealing with chronic conditions such as heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and gut health.
Approach to care
My approach to care is holistic, personalized, and above all, non-judgmental. I believe in looking at the whole person, considering their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Together, we'll identify the root causes of your health concerns, with you firmly in the driver's seat and me as your supportive coach. My ultimate goal is to equip you with the tools and confidence you need to achieve your optimal health.
Your first session with Althea
When you choose to work with me our journey begins with a comprehensive assessment that includes a medical history and lab tests. Based on the assessment, I will customize a nutritional plan for you, which will include recommendations, lifestyle, and dietary modifications. I will provide ongoing support to you and make adjustments in your care as needed.
