About Erin
Hey there! I'm Erin and I've been a Dietitian for 18 years. I have worked in home health and hospitals where I helped with everything from diabetes to heart health, cancer and weight loss. I have extensive knowledge in chronic kidney disease after working in dialysis clinics. I have experience in long term care where I worked with rehab patients and the elderly. On a personal note, I have struggled with emotional/disordered eating my whole life so I can empathize with the struggle and have worked to finally have a healthy relationship with food.
Approach to care
Small steps to success is my motto. My approach to care is warm and encouraging. I grew up in Chicago and now live on the central coast of California so I have learned how to eat both deep dish pizza and avocado toast without guilt! :) I eat all types of foods because I believe there are no "good" or "bad" foods so there is no judgement from me! You can expect a safe and positive conversation. I may gently challenge you to think differently about dieting, weight and your body.
Your first session with Erin
Our first session will be all about getting to know your goals and I will find out how I can best support you. We will discuss your history and lifestyle and we will collaborate together to come up with a sustainable and achievable plan that takes into consideration your mental health along with physical health. I will listen and validate your concerns. We can celebrate both big and small achievements! I'm so excited to help you and watch you succeed!
