About Kanami

Hi, I'm Kanami! I'm passionate about helping people feel happier about and more in control of their health. I became a dietitian out of a curiosity for how food affects the body and to help people like me who’ve felt overwhelmed by all the "health" noise out there. Whatever your concerns are, I'm here to guide and support you every step of the way.

Approach to care

I know that navigating good nutrition and healthy habits can feel overwhelming. I'm here to help you reach your goals by working on a realistic and doable nutrition plan that fits you. I'll also be your sounding board and accountability buddy throughout—because real change takes time and dedication, but with the right tools and support it's more than possible!

Your first session with Kanami

Our first session is about getting to know each other and setting expectations. I'll take some time to learn about your nutrition/medical history, lifestyle, and diet, including any current or past challenges. We'll also explore your "why"—what brought you here and what you're hoping to gain from our sessions. You'll go home with at least one action item to kickstart your journey!
