About Hannah

Hello! My name is Hannah and I'm a Registered Dietitian based in San Luis Obispo, California. In addition to working at Nourish, I work as a clinical dietitian at one of our state hospitals. Eating healthy food is one of the best things a person can do for their mental and physical health. Not only does it help prevent chronic illnesses including heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, but it also helps a person feel better and more confident every day. If you've tried dieting before, you have likely been discouraged by the outcome. Maybe you were able to lose the weight, but soon after, despite your best effort, gained it all back. Studies have shown that repeat dieting can cause weight gain over time. How frustrating is that?? Dieting is officially out.

Approach to care

Unlike with standard diets, my research-based approach involves incorporating realistic long lasting habits into your everyday life. We want it to be joyful and energizing, that way it doesn't feel like a chore. Food doesn't have to be stressful or shameful.

Your first session with Hannah

In our first session I want to learn all about you! The more I know, the more I will be able to support you on your unique health journey. I will ask questions about your health history and what brought you to Nourish, as well as your expectations for our work together to ensure you get the most out of this experience. By the end, you will have a clear understanding of the next steps and how we’ll continue to work together to support your goals.
