About Janine
I was introduced to the world of nutrition through sports and throughout my education have grown an appreciation for clinical nutrition and diving into research articles. I used to compete at a world-class level in a weight sensitive sport and was introduced to the world of disordered eating at a very vulnerable age. This has driven my graduate research as I focused on combat sport athletes and disordered eating prevalence, practices, and educating athletes and coaches. I was raised with Japanese roots, and have grown a great respect and appreciation for food cultures and doing my best to honor that in the work that I do.
Approach to care
I believe in meeting clients where they are at, and taking small and achievable steps towards their health, nutrition and/or performance goals. I understand that there is no one diet that fits all and look forward to finding the unique and individualized solutions to meet my client’s needs. My hope is to help those that I work with enjoy nutrition and establish a healthy relationship with food for the rest of their lives. I am here to understand what you are experiencing and find achievable and realistic solutions for you to meet your nutrition goals.
Your first session with Janine
The first session is all about getting to know you and what you are hoping to achieve while working with me. I want to know where you are with your nutrition currently, get to know your lifestyle and relationship with food, discover where you would like to be, and take the first steps in creating a custom plan that will help you reach your nutrition goals.
