About Emily
As a Registered Dietitian and Personal Trainer, Emily has helped hundreds of patients lose tons -with customized plans suited to the unique needs of every weight management journey. She has worked in the nutrition and fitness industry for over 20 years and has appeared in several nutrition/exercise segments on TV. While working on research teams for GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, Zepbound, compound) she discovered her niche and gained valuable insight into the complex management of the disease of obesity while placing her patient's journey and experiences as the primary focus of her practice. While weight management is a passion, Emily has worked with diverse clinical populations, and believes practical food based solutions should be a treatment focus in diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancers. Her compassion, sense of humor and food knowledge can be a valuable asset to your journey towards health and happiness.

Your first session with Emily
We will get to know each other and define a relationship that suits your needs best (ex; Coach, Educator, Accountability Partner, All of the Above!). I'll review your medical and diet history, and we'll chat about your experiences and relationship with food and nutrition. We will set realistic goals for success and address any potential barriers to reaching your goals. Most of all, I want you to feel at ease and excited when we sign off with a few practical food based solutions to try on Day 1 :)
