About Emmalee

Hi, I'm Emmalee, a Registered Dietitian with five years of experience in clinical and hospital settings here in Cincinnati. I earned a Bachelor of Science and a Master's Certificate in nutrition, and I practice with the credentials LD and RD. When I'm not at the clinic, you might find me hiking, kayaking, reading, or shaping clay in pottery. I love figuring out new strategies for complex nutrition challenges and I'm passionate about educating my clients so you have the tools to manage day-to-day eating with confidence. I value warmth, curiosity, and collaboration in every appointment.

Approach to care

I believe care should be grounded in current science, empathy, and a collaborative spirit. My approach is evidence-based and educational, focusing on real-life steps you can actually follow. I work with you in a weight-neutral mindset, prioritizing sustainable habits over quick fixes. We'll explore your whole life, including stress, sleep, meals, and social triggers, so we can tailor strategies that fit your values. I aim for a holistic plan that honors you and helps you feel capable, not overwhelmed.

Your first session with Emmalee

Our first appointment is all about you. Think of it as a conversation, not an exam. We'll review your medical history, explore your relationship with food, and identify short-term goals that feel doable. You don't need to have everything figured out in advance; we'll get to know each other and establish a clear next step together. You deserve a warm, judgment-free space where your questions matter and your pace sets the pace for your progress.
