About Courtney

Courtney is a Charlotte, NC based Registered Dietitian with over 10 years of experience helping people achieve their health and wellness goals. After discovering the importance of health and nutrition at a young age, Courtney's passion about the impacts of dietary intake on well-being and love of nutritious foods drove her to pursue a degree in Dietetics. Throughout her career, Courtney has worked with individuals to improve their relationship with food in a safe, supportive space during their journey to better health. She believes that nutrition is not just about what we eat, but how we feel about what we eat, and strives to create a sustainable approach to dietary health and well-being.

Approach to care

Courtney believes in a client-centered approach and partners with each client as they take control of their own health journey. Courtney integrates evidence-based practices with a compassionate touch, ensuring her clients feel empowered to make long lasting changes. Courtney takes pride in creating personalized, balanced nutritional plans that are tailored to each individual’s lifestyle, preferences, and nutritional needs to ensure that each plan is as unique as the individual themselves.

Your first session with Courtney

The first session will focus on building a strong foundation for a successful client-dietitian relationship. You can expect a thorough assessment in which we discuss dietary habits, health history, lifestyle, and personal goals. At the end of the first session, we will begin to create a roadmap that will lead you toward your personal objectives. If time allows during that first session we will start setting goals that are realistic and achievable and will give you the confidence to move you forward on your health journey.
