About Julianna

Hi! My name is Julianna, and I am excited to get to know you better! I am a mom (3 girls...yes it's a bit crazy around here) I am not a dietitian who is going to tell you that you have to go all organic or spend your grocery budget on things that don't work for your lifestyle. I have a strong background in outpatient nutrition (10+ years), I work with weight management and bariatric patients. My other specialties and areas of interest include pediatric/family nutrition, weight management, mindful eating, and diabetes. For my families out there... my kids are picky too! I have one who literally will count out 10 green beans because she's 10, I have another who eats tomatoes like apples, and another who throws every fruit and veggie to our dog...who is also a picky eater...It's a fun time but we get through it and I am here to help however I can. You made the right choice by coming here and I can't wait to meet you!

Approach to care

I believe in a patient-led approach to care. During our time together, we will discuss opportunities for change. Then we will work together to decide what actions are appropriate to help you meet your goals. YOU get to decide what is best, but I will provide you with evidence-based approaches to help with those decisions. I also am not the "food police" I think it is so important to find balance...Food should be enjoyable and I want it to stay that way. Let's work together and figure out what that looks like for you.

Your first session with Julianna

Our first session is all about creating a relationship and getting to know one another. We will talk about your goals, expectations, and some of your current and past habits. We will talk about what works and doesn't work for your lifestyle. You will leave the session with some goals and an action plan.
