About Alyssa

Over the past 7 years, I have been committed to my education and professional growth in the field of dietetics. During this time, I earned my degree in dietetics, completed my master's degree and finished my dietetic internship. Along the way I have gained diverse experience working in clinical setting, community nutrition, sports nutrition, and tactical nutrition. These opportunities helped shape my passion for nutrition and allowed me to develop different skill sets while working with a variety of populations. While my career has been very important to me, family has always been at the center of my life. I spent about 9 months living in Sarasota Florida before deciding to move back to be closer to my family, a decision that has been incredibly meaningful to me. I have 2 sisters and am a proud aunt to one niece and one nephew with another niece on the way. Being an aunt is one of my favorite roles, and I truly value the time I get to spend with my family.

Approach to care

My approach to care is centered around my clients and their individual needs. I believe it is important to meet clients where they are and make sure they feel comfortable every step of the way. Every client is different, I take my time to listen to their concerns, preferences, and lifestyle to create realistic and achievable goals. Building a strong, supportive relationship with my clients is very important to me. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment where clients feel comfortable coming to me in terms of nutrition. Whether they have questions, concerns, or challenges, I want them to know they can reach out without fear of judgement. Trust and communication are key parts of long-term success and I want my clients to feel supported throughout their journey. I am committed to being there for my clients every step of the way, offering guidance, encouragement, and motivation as they work towards their goals.

Your first session with Alyssa

Your first session will focus on getting to know you. We’ll go through a variety of questions about your lifestyle, eating habits, exercise routine, job, and anything else that may be important based on your overall goals. You’ll complete a nutrition assessment form that helps me better understand who you are and how to tailor an approach specifically for you. Please be prepared to answer detailed questions about your diet, eating habits, and food likes and dislikes. I’ll also take time to explain my approach, how I like to do things, and how I believe we can work together to tackle your goals moving forward.

Hobbies

In my free time, I enjoy many different hobbies. I like working out and running because they help me stay active and feel good. I also enjoy baking, especially when I can make treats for my family and friends. Shopping is another hobby I like because it’s fun to look for new clothes and accessories. When I need to relax, I enjoy taking naps and watching Disney movies. I also love hanging out with my friends and family because spending time with them makes me happy.
