About Christine
Hello! I’m Christine, a Registered Dietitian with over 30 years of experience specializing in eating disorders, emotional and disordered eating, weight management (including loss, gain, and stabilization), bariatric surgery, weight loss medications, and diabetes care. I’m also a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES) and hold a Certificate in Adult Weight Management from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. My passion is helping people make peace with food so they can finally live free from the stress, guilt, and shame often tied to eating and body image.
Approach to care
I’m committed to offering a supportive, collaborative, and empowering approach—meeting you exactly where you are in your health journey. My goal is to help you feel better in your body and enhance your quality of life through personalized nutrition and practical lifestyle changes. I strive to bring warmth, curiosity, and a bit of humor into each session as we unravel years of nutrition misinformation and challenge harmful body ideals together.
Your first session with Christine
During our first session, my goal is to truly understand your story. I’ll ask thoughtful questions about your medical history, eating patterns, lifestyle, and goals. We’ll also explore any underlying habits or thought patterns that may be influencing your relationship with food—sometimes in ways you haven’t fully recognized yet. Rooted in evidence-based practice, I'll collaborate with you to develop realistic, sustainable plans tailored to fit your unique needs and long-term goals. Thank you for considering me as your dietitian—I truly appreciate the opportunity to support you on your health journey and look forward to working together!
