Approach to care
I truly believe each individual deserves proper nutrition education, support and coaching no matter what stage of life they are currently navigating. I believe in a patient centered approach where I meet you where you are at and help you take the lead in your health journey. I also take an all food can fit approach and love incorporating my patient’s cultural and favorite foods when providing nutrition education. I aspire to help you build confidence in your health journey in a non-diet or judgmental approach.
Your first session with Candace
This session is all about getting to know you! We will explore your medical history, eating and exercise behaviors, current challenges, sleep habits, work demands and anything else to help me gain a full picture of who you are and where you would like to be. I like to take this time to understand what it is like standing in your shoes. I will provide quality and evidence based nutrition but will allow you to be in the drivers seat of your lifestyle changes while I empower you and help you navigate the journey of health.
