About Julia

Hi, I'm Julia. I'm a Registered Dietitian with 18 years of experience, and I earned a BS in Human Nutrition from Texas A&M University-Kingsville. My clinical and hospital work, along with dialysis and long-term care, have given me a broad view of nutrition in health and daily life. I hold the LD and RD credentials and I bring a science-based, compassionate approach to every patient I meet. When we work together, we'll support you with practical steps, and outside of sessions I enjoy cooking wholesome meals with friends and family.

Approach to care

My care philosophy is built on collaboration, evidence, and lasting change. I stay grounded in current research so our plan is practical and effective, but I meet you where you are with empathy and warmth. We’ll set clear, achievable steps and track progress together, so you feel supported every step of the way. I practice a Health At Every Size, weight-neutral lens that focuses on sustainable habits, not quick fixes, and I view your health as holistic, including mind, body, and everyday life. Education drives our decisions so you can own your choices.

Your first session with Julia

Our first appointment is a warm, low pressure conversation designed for you. We’ll review your medical history and current routines, talk about your relationship with food, and identify what has been working and what hasn’t. You don’t need to have it all figured out before we meet; this is about getting to know you and your goals. Together, we’ll set 1 or 2 short-term, realistic goals and outline simple steps to start. You’ll leave with a sense of clarity and a clear path forward.
