Patient reviews
“Joseph does clinical care right. The first session is always going to be an assessment, and Joseph's ability to be curious without being judgmental, ask the right questions in the right way, and integrate various areas of health into how they blend with diet is TOP NOTCH. His knowledge of dietetics is evidence-based, but conversational enough to make sense anyone. His ability to relate academic research and integrate each session is amazing. I would definitely recommend Joseph! 10/10!“

About Joseph
I’m a registered dietitian with a decade of clinical experience, including acute care and long-term work with individuals managing autoimmune conditions, gut health concerns, digestive issues, and other chronic illnesses. Clients often describe me as knowledgeable, approachable, and easy to talk to. I specialize in helping people who feel stuck or overwhelmed make sense of their symptoms and nutrition choices. My work focuses on personalized nutrition counseling that supports whole-body health while fitting into real life—without judgment or extreme rules.
Approach to care
I take a holistic, functional nutrition approach that looks at the full picture of your health. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we explore nutrition patterns, lifestyle factors, and root causes that may be contributing to autoimmune symptoms, digestive health concerns, or ongoing inflammation. Care is always individualized. Together, we create a personalized nutrition plan based on your goals, medical history, preferences, and schedule. I prioritize evidence-based guidance, education, and accountability—so changes feel realistic, sustainable, and supportive over time. This approach works especially well for clients managing autoimmune disease, gut health issues, and complex or chronic health concerns.
Your first session with Joseph
Your first nutrition counseling session is centered around understanding you—your health history, current symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. The session is conversational, supportive, and non-judgmental. During our first visit, you can expect: A thorough intake focused on autoimmune, gut, and overall health Clear, easy-to-understand explanations Initial nutrition strategies and practical next steps A plan tailored to your needs, preferences, and daily routine Most clients leave the first session feeling heard, supported, and confident in the direction of their care. We’ll also discuss follow-up visits and ongoing nutrition support to help you continue making progress.
