About Emily

Hi! I am Emily, a Registered Dietitian who is passionate about evidenced-based care tailored to individual and unique health needs. I truly value the trust that is placed in me by my clients and always prioritize their needs and wants above all else. Every individual I work with receives personalized care, ensuring that they feel supported and empowered throughout their journey towards better health. My comprehensive expertise equips me to offer tailored nutrition solutions that empower individuals to achieve optimal health and well-being. When I am not nerding out on new nutrition research (which is a lot of the time!), I love to do yoga, pilates, read books, and you will always catch me traveling somewhere new! I am also a former (but now retired) dancer! Growing up as a dancer is actually what guided me to my passion for nutrition due to how greatly nutrition intake can affect the body, and the importance of proper nutrition for improving performance!

Approach to care

I have helped empower hundreds of clients to achieve their unique health goals by using sustainable and realistic solutions that work for the long-term. I am committed to delivering unparalleled care, rooted in evidence-based nutrition and always addressing the root causes of health issues. I am passionate about providing nutrition care to those with chronic disease and chronic illness, including autoimmune disease, hormonal imbalances, women's health issues, gastrointestinal diseases, dysautonomia, and more. By combining compassionate care, evidenced-based practices, and a commitment to addressing the root cause, I am excited to help you improve your health and feel your best!

Your first session with Emily

In our first session, prepare to answer a bunch of questions from me! I want to learn everything about you! Your eating habits, exercise routine, sleep hygeine, work schedule, relationship with food, lifestyle, medical history, and so much more. The most important question I will be asking is what you hope to gain out of working with me. I will always actively listen to your concerns, goals, and food preferences to create a unique and personalized plan for just for you. Nutrition and health is so much more complex than the foods you eat, so learning about you as a whole is an essential component to providing the best care.
