About Carissa

Hi! I'm Carissa. I'm just a girl who enjoyed cooking for my family while my mom worked with cancer patients. She would take me along to events, fundraisers, or trips which sparked my passion for cooking for cancer patients. My career may have changed a bit from that but now I have experience in cooking, cancer care, general adult health, and psychological conditions.

Approach to care

My approach to care is all about the process. It's about finding what you currently do, making small but meaningful changes, and watching you grow to meet your goals. I take into consideration your local environment, how much time you have, and what is reasonable for you. Everyone is different, so I will help find what works for you.
