Patient reviews
“Ive been working with Debra for the past 6 months & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive, knowledgeable & approachable dietitian. Shes made me feel comfortable, truly listened to my goals & concerns. She provided guidance & encouragement I needed to take that first step & stick with it. With her support, Ive achieved steady, healthy weight loss, more importantly built confidence & gained the tools to make lasting lifestyle changes. I couldn’t have asked for a better dietitian!“

About Debra
First and foremost I am a mother of 3 beautiful children and retired military spouse. I am also a licensed Registered Dietitian with 2 decades of experience. While I have practiced in nearly all areas of nutrition over my career, I have found the most reward in helping individuals gain a better grasp on how to adequately nourish their bodies while improving or maintaining a healthy relationship with food and their body. Having lived and worked across the country, it has provided me the experience to help people from all backgrounds follow and sustain a healthy diet.
Approach to care
My approach to care is to meet you where you are, and include you in every step along the way. While there is scientific evidence supporting certain methods more than others, that we will be sure to discuss, I believe all of us are individuals and can achieve the results we desire in different ways. Many times you may know what that might be better than me, especially because you are the expert of your own body! I am here to support you, guiding you to reach your goals in a healthy and sustainable way.
Your first session with Debra
Our first session together will be spent getting to know each other. I want to fully understand your history and why you chose to seek out and follow through with nutrition counseling. My goal is to gain your trust and confidence in my abilities to help you achieve desired outcomes. By the end of our session we will have begun to develop an individualized plan to help you reach your health goals. This will start with some short term goals to work on prior to our next session.
