About Clara

Hi, I'm Clara! I'm a Registered Dietitian based in Tennessee with over 12 years of experience helping individuals thrive through nutrition. My career has spanned a wide range of clinical settings, including weight management, diabetes education, bariatric surgery, metabolic support, dialysis, chronic kidney disease, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and general wellness. While I’ve worked across many specialties, my deepest passion lies in sports nutrition and hormone health for both women and men. Even as a dietitian, I’ve felt overwhelmed by the conflicting advice out there. I’ve been stuck, discouraged, and wondering why I wasn’t seeing the results I expected. It wasn’t until I dove deeper into hormone balance and gender-specific nutrition needs that I unlocked the performance and wellness I was striving for. Now, I want to help you do the same.

Approach to care

I believe nutrition should be personalized, realistic, and empowering. I use evidence-based guidelines and the latest peer-reviewed research to craft recommendations tailored to your unique needs, preferences, and goals. Whether you're navigating chronic conditions, optimizing athletic performance, or simply trying to feel better in your body, I’m here to guide you with clarity and compassion. I offer a non-judgmental space where your voice is heard and your experiences matter. Together, we’ll cut through the noise of fad diets and influencer hype to build a sustainable lifestyle that truly works for you.

Your first session with Clara

Our first meeting is all about you. I’ll take time to understand your medical history, daily routine, dietary habits, exercise patterns, challenges, and aspirations. From there, we’ll set short- and long-term goals and begin building your personalized plan. I’ll be with you every step of the way—between sessions, cheering you on, answering questions, and adjusting your plan as needed. Let’s work together to help you feel your best—strong, energized, and confident.
