About James

Hey there! I’m Jimmy Shaw. As a Registered Dietitian with 6.5 years of experience, I specialize in providing client-centered nutrition support that’s tailored to your unique goals, lifestyle and health needs. I am passionate about making nutrition simple and accessible to you.

Approach to care

Whether you're managing a chronic condition like diabetes or kidney disease, working toward sustainable weight management, or simply aiming to optimize your diet and overall health, I’m here to guide you with compassion, evidence-based strategies and practical solutions. Your health goals are possible with the right guidance and support. I’m here to help you every step of the way!

Your first session with James

In our first session, we'll take time to get to know each other and dive into your health history, current lifestyle and any specific goals or challenges you’re facing. I’ll ask about any medical conditions, lab results (if available), medications and your day-to-day routine so I can get a full picture of your health. From there, we’ll start to outline a personalized plan that fits your goals and feels realistic for your lifestyle. You’ll leave the session with clear next steps, a better understanding of how nutrition supports your health and a roadmap for moving forward. Most importantly, it’s a judgment-free space! We go at your pace; I’m here to support, not overwhelm.

Hobbies

In my spare time, I enjoy playing the drums and guitar, which help me stay creative and unwind. I’m passionate about weight lifting, as it keeps me physically active and mentally focused. Cooking is another hobby I love, allowing me to explore new recipes and experiment with nutritious meals. Travel is a big part of my life as well, as it broadens my perspective and gives me the chance to experience new cultures and cuisines. Above all, I cherish spending quality time with my family and friends.
