Approach to care

As a dietitian, my approach to care is centered around you and your unique needs, goals, and lifestyle. I believe in using evidence-based practices to guide our work together, ensuring that the recommendations I provide are not only safe but also effective. I strive to meet you where you're at, recognizing that every person’s journey is different and that small, sustainable changes are often the key to lasting success. My philosophy is food-first, emphasizing the importance of whole foods and balanced nutrition to support your health and well-being.
