Courtney Ferreira

About Courtney

I am a registered dietitian, certified personal trainer through NASM, and a board certified health coach. I have been in the nutrition space for nearly ten years. In that time I have done a mix of clinical work, media work, including television, and now I do exclusively counseling. I am an east coast girl living in Kentucky with my husband and two rescue dogs. I practice what I preach and am motivated to help others find better health, confidence, and longevity.

Approach to care

I believe in an all foods fit approach to nutrition. Too often the expectation of perfection and a total diet overhaul prevents folks from improving their health and habits. I help my clients start NOW. I use small changes and mindset work to help my clients feel more confident in their ability to make good food choices. I believe my clients should understand what is happening in their body and encourage complete understanding of the 'why' behind any change we make. I use positive reframing and realistic goal setting to move my clients to a healthier place. As a board certified health coach I use a collaborative coach approach first, and believe you are the ultimate expert on you.
