About Chelsea
Hi! My name is Chelsea and I am an adaptable and outcomes-oriented Registered Dietitian with proven success creating personalized meal plans that align with the health goals of clients in varied industries, including K-12 education, fitness, and healthcare environments. With almost 10 years of experience, I am skilled in providing counseling to promote healthy eating habits and address specific dietary concerns. I am proficient in conducting assessments of nutritional needs while considering factors such as medical history, dietary preferences, and lifestyle. I remain abreast of new research and guidelines in nutrition science while evaluating food products and developing personalized interventions. I adhere to ethical standards and professional codes of conduct while maintaining confidentiality, respecting cultural diversity, and promoting evidence-based practices in nutrition and dietetics.
Approach to care
Nutrition is individualized and not a one size fits all; one solution does not account for individual differences or specific needs. I am passionate about helping individuals meet their goals, one step at a time, and focusing on empowering individuals to make lasting lifestyle changes for a happier self.
Your first session with Chelsea
During our first session, we will spend some time getting to know each other while discussing personal goals and motivations necessary to establish a foundation for success. I will complete a nutrition assessment including health history, dietary habits, and lifestyle to create a personalized nutrition plan.
