About Annalise

Hi! My name is Annalise, and I am so excited to be considered as your dietitian! I have been providing nutrition counseling for over 5 years. I am specialized in weight loss and hold the additional credential of Certified Specialist in Obesity and Weight Management (CSOWM). In addition to weight management, I enjoy working with individuals with diabetes, heart disease, GI issues, and disordered eating. If you prefer a weight neutral approach, focusing on overall health improvement without watching the scale, I can support you in that as well! When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my husband, 2 kids, and improving my new hobby of hand embroidery.

Approach to care

In a world full of fad diets and conflicting health information, I am passionate about helping patients sort through it all and simplify nutrition. I view our time together as collaborative, working as a team to understand where you are at and what your goals are. I approach sessions with flexibility, tailoring recommendations to your needs. I do not follow a "one size fits all" approach to nutrition counseling but rather meet you where you are and help you take steps to get to where you want to be with your weight and health goals. I focus on goal setting and making those goals realistic and attainable. I celebrate small and big wins with you and encourage you to keep going through setbacks.

Your first session with Annalise

Much of our first session will be collecting information to help me better understand your current health, history, and goals of nutrition counseling. We will have time for education and goal setting. We will establish what follow ups will look like moving forward and use our time together as accountability and time for brainstorming.
