About Deborah
About Dr. Debbi: I am a registered and licensed dietitian who trained at the University of Memphis in Tennessee. I have worked with individuals and groups in clinical and community health settings. I love to assist with positive lifestyles and to help others harness nutrition as a tool for wellness. I partner with clients as they make their way to better health and quality of life through healthy lifestyle changes. I look forward to meeting you and helping you on your path to wellness.
Approach to care
Effective and evidence-based practices are central to my approach to care. I have seen time and again the positive effect of prevention when it is possible, and of effective intervention when it is needed. I see my role as assisting clients’ lifestyle choices as they seek improved health and quality of life. I provide guidance and insight as clients discern what is important to their health and help them map out their path.
Your first session with Deborah
We will start off with an engaging discussion where you will have the opportunity to share your health goals as well as your past efforts to address these goals. We will discuss the challenges that you have had along the path to wellness, and begin to strategize for effective and evidence-based solutions to these challenges. We will map out a plan for ongoing engagement around reaching your wellness goals.
