About Angela

Hi, I'm Angela, a registered dietitian nutritionist inviting you to join me as we identify together simple and practical ways to optimize your health, focusing on your nutrition and lifestyle choices. We will put together a personalized wellness plan that is do-able and effective in helping you achieve your goals. With this guide you will learn how to use food to optimize your heath, prevent and manage chronic diseases, and cultivate lasting positive health behaviors... we will build healthier habits together that will last!

Approach to care

I use a collaborative and client-centered approach, tailoring each plan to your unique lifestyle, preferences, and health goals. I focus on sustainable, positive changes and provide evidence-based guidance in a supportive, judgment-free space. I believe that your nutrition and lifestyle habits become sustainable when they are personalized to fit your specific needs.

Your first session with Angela

During our first session, we will have a conversation to help me understand your background, health history, and your relationship with food. We will discuss your goals and expectations for nutrition counseling. This intake session is a safe space for you to share as much or as little as you are comfortable with. By the end, we will have a foundation to build a personalized plan for your journey toward better health. Every follow-up session will build on this foundation to ensure your future success!
