About Faith

Hello/Hola, Ya'll! Im Faith (She/Her), a Texas-based registered and licensed dietitian. I earned my Bachelor's of Science in Nutrition and Foods from Texas State University and a Master's in Applied Nutrition from Southeast Missouri University.  My experience is in gerontological nutrition, working with clients to meet their goals in managing and preventing various chronic conditions. I enjoy supporting clients to find accessible ways to meet their health goals without giving up the foods they love.

Approach to care

I aim to create a safe space and use a health at every size approach. There is always room to include foods that nourish your mind and body. I will help you find opportunities to sustain you throughout your daily life and any changes that may come with that. I will take your goals and setbacks with an open mind and continue providing you with the tools you need to overcome obstacles. What I most enjoy about my role is providing nutrition education and counseling to clients to ensure they are adequately prepared to start their nutrition journey.  No matter where you are in your journey, I will support you with whatever you need. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming. 

Your first session with Faith

During our first session, I will get to know you by asking about your nutrition goals, daily routine, and medical and dietary history. These questions will help me understand who you are and where my assistance can best benefit you. I can then provide nutrition education and discuss realistic, achievable ways to meet your goals based on where you are. I will provide a judgment-free environment where you will feel empowered to know you are taking the proper steps towards making a healthier you. Whether your nutrition goals are short- or long-term, regular follow-ups are encouraged to ensure you feel supported during your journey.
