About Cristen

Hello! I am a registered dietitian, busy mom/daughter/wife, and true believer that food is medicine!

Approach to care

I believe food is powerful medicine, but I also know it’s only one piece of the puzzle. I take a whole-person approach, looking at your lifestyle, habits, and daily stressors to uncover what may be keeping you from feeling your best. As both a mom and a busy professional, I understand how hard it can be to take care of yourself while juggling family, work, and life’s demands. That’s why I meet you where you are and create a plan that feels realistic, personalized, and doable … for you and your whole family. My goal is simple: to help you find peace with food and discover a way of eating that heals your body, fits your life, and leaves you feeling energized and confident.
