About Alyssa
Hi, I'm Alyssa, a Registered Dietitian with 10 years of experience and a Master's in Nutrition from East Carolina University. I’ve spent time in clinical and hospital settings and in community health, where I learned how food and health show up in everyday life. I’m proud to hold the RD credential and I strive to translate science into practical steps you can actually try. When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll find me baking or hiking, walking with my family or crocheting. I’m grateful to share this work with you.
Approach to care
My care philosophy blends warmth with evidence-based practice and a focus on lasting change. I honor Health At Every Size and tailor plans to your goals, not a number on the scale. You’ll be met with empathy and clear guidance, and we’ll work together to turn understanding into action. My approach is holistic and educational: I’ll help you connect the dots between food, mood, energy, and daily routines, so you can make informed choices that fit your life now and for the long term.
Your first session with Alyssa
Our first appointment is a warm, low-pressure conversation about you. We'll review your medical history, do a deep dive into your relationship with food, establish short-term goals, and review lab work/biometrics together. You don’t need to have it all figured out before we meet; we’ll co-create a practical path with steps you can start this week. This space is judgment-free and collaborative, and we’ll move at a pace that feels doable.
