About Joanna

Hi there — and welcome! I’m a dietitian with about 10 years of experience and a deep love for helping people live healthier lives… without giving up the foods that make life worth living. I’ve worked in long-term care, short-term rehab, schools, early childhood programs, and public health. This means I’ve met and helped people of all ages, backgrounds, and health needs. If you’re a human who eats food, we’ll get along great. Before becoming a dietitian, I went to culinary school and worked as a pastry chef. Yes, a pastry chef. So trust me when I say I understand the emotional gravity of good food. I firmly believe that a healthy diet still needs to taste amazing — otherwise, what’s the point? My time in the food world taught me all the nerdy food-science tricks to tweak recipes so they fit your needs without sacrificing flavor (or your will to live).

Approach to care

I use evidence-based nutrition — not fad diets, not magic powders, and not advice from random social media sources. I tailor everything to your lifestyle, culture, tastes, and goals. We’ll set realistic steps together and celebrate wins one bite at a time.

Your first session with Joanna

In our first session, we’ll chat, get to know each other, talk about your health goals, and set at least one doable action for the next few days. No stress. No judgment. Just teamwork — and probably food talk. I can’t wait to work with you and help you feel healthier, happier, and confident in your choices.
