About Courtney

Hi, I’m Courtney. I’m a Registered Dietitian with eight years of experience, grounded in a B.S. in Human Nutrition and Dietetics from Kansas State University. I’ve worked in clinical and hospital settings and in sports nutrition, helping people build healthier relationships with food and improve performance. I practice with postnominals RD, CSSD, LD, and I rely on evidence-based guidance that fits real life. When I’m not working, you’ll find me playing sand volleyball, surfing on the lake, or moving with yoga, barre, and pilates while catching up with friends.

Approach to care

My care philosophy blends evidence-based science with an empathetic, warm approach. I stay current with research so recommendations are practical and proven, but I always meet you where you are and honor your preferences and values. We’ll work together with clear, actionable steps and accountability, aiming for lasting change rather than quick fixes. I practice a weight-neutral Health at Every Size perspective and focus on the behaviors that support energy, mood, and vitality. Ultimately, I treat you as a whole person and educate you so you can make informed decisions long after our sessions end.

Your first session with Courtney

Think of our first appointment as a conversation about you and your relationship with food. We’ll listen, learn, and map out what matters most to you. You don’t need to have it all figured out before we meet; this is a judgment-free space where you can show up as you are. We’ll explore your history, routines, barriers, and goals, then set 1–2 realistic next steps you can start today. I’ll support you with clear guidance and together we’ll build a plan that fits your life and sustains long-term change.
