About Carolyn
Hi, Iâm Carolyn, a registered dietitian with a passion for helping people build a balanced, sustainable relationship with food. With experience in both clinical and long-term care settings, Iâve worked with a diverse range of clients, helping them navigate special diets, food allergies, and overall wellness goals. I believe that nutrition should be practical, enjoyable, and tailored to your unique needs. Whether youâre looking to manage a health condition, improve your energy levels, or simply feel more confident in your food choices, Iâm here to guide you with evidence-based recommendations and a realistic approach. My goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools to make nourishing choices that fit your lifestyleâwithout guilt or restriction. Letâs work together to create a plan that helps you feel your best. I'm so excited to help you on your journey!
Approach to care
I take a personalized, practical, and non-restrictive approach to nutrition. Food should be both nourishing and enjoyable, and my focus is on helping you build sustainable habits that fit your lifestyle. My philosophy is rooted in: Individualized nutrition, I tailor my guidance to your unique needs and goals. Balance Over Perfection; nutrition isnât about strict rules, itâs about creating a healthy, flexible relationship with food. Evidence-based guidance, I always use science-backed recommendations to help you make informed choices. Long-term sustainability, I help you develop realistic strategies that fit into your daily life for lasting change. Whether you need support with food allergies, meal planning, or overall well-being, Iâm here to help with expertise and compassion.
Your first session with Carolyn
Your first session is all about getting to know youâyour health history, lifestyle, food preferences, and nutrition goals. I strive to create a comfortable, judgment-free space where we can build a plan that works for you. Weâll discuss your medical history, current eating habits, and any challenges youâre facing. Together, weâll set clear, achievable goals, whether itâs managing food allergies, improving energy, or creating a balanced approach to eating. Iâll provide personalized nutrition guidance with practical strategies like meal planning tips or mindful eating techniques. This is a collaborative process, so ask anything! By the end, weâll have a plan for moving forward, whether through follow-ups, meal planning, or small, sustainable changes. Ready to take the first step? I canât wait to hear from you!
