About Alyssa
Hi, I'm Alyssa, a Registered Dietitian based in Lakeland, Florida. I bring 15 years of experience in the clinical and hospital settings and hold a Master of Science in Nutrition from Kent State University. Nutrition is where my inner science geek and foodie collide, bringing together everything I love about food and physiology. Over the years, I’ve supported individuals with a wide range of health concerns, with specialized experience in gastrointestinal conditions/post-surgical care as well as nutrition for cancer prevention, treatment, and survivorship. When I'm not helping patients, you will find me doing HIIT and weightlifting, reading, crafting or chasing around my rambunctious toddler. I believe nourishment is energy for everyday life, and I help develop goals that fit real life while supporting long term well-being.
Approach to care
My care is rooted in evidence-based science and a collaborative, compassionate approach with accountability built in. I practice with a Health At Every Size (HAES) mindset, honoring every body and prioritizing sustainable habits over quick fixes. A key part of this process is increasing your self‑awareness around what proper nourishment feels like for you. I see you as a whole person and aim to educate you so you can make informed choices long after our sessions, while intentional movement and mindful eating support your energy and mood.
Your first session with Alyssa
Our first session is all about you. We will review your medical history, lab work, and biometrics, then talk through your story, goals, and what motivates you. This is a judgment-free space where you can share at your own pace. Together, we'll uncover your why and build a realistic, supportive plan that helps you feel your best from the inside out--science, snacks, and all. No need to have it all figured out; just show up as you are and we'll take it from there.
