About Alyssa

Alyssa started her journey in nutrition as a second career. Prior to being a registered dietitian, she worked as a personal trainer, certified nutritionist and competitive bodybuilder. Through misinformation in the gym, she sought to find the truth in nutrition care. Now, after completing her masters in nutrition, she sees a large variety of patients in both the inpatient and outpatient settings.

Approach to care

Alyssa’s approach to care is patient focused and through the behavior change model. Alyssa believes that the recipe for successful health transformation is through consistency and over time. There are no cookie cutter programs for success when it comes to nutrition care, and each patient or client should be seen and treated as an individual.

Your first session with Alyssa

During your first session with Alyssa, you can expect to review your health history, nutrition history, overall goals and set small SMART goals together. Additionally, by being patient driven, the choice to dive deep into macronutrient prescription is ultimately at the discretion of the client.
