Approach to care
I do not believe in diets but an overall balanced approach to nutrition. I view my patients as individuals with specific needs and goals and treat them as such. I keep up to date with all of the current recommendations and trends so I can help my patients navigate them.
Your first session with Barbara
We will do a thorough review of eating and diet history. Then we will create goals and a road map for future sessions. We will work create a plan that is long term and sustainable. I belive in an overall balanced approach to nutrition that is not a diet but a lifestyle.
