About Katherine

Hi, I’m Katie, a Registered Dietitian in Northwest Indiana. I earned my BS in Medical Dietetics from The Ohio State University and bring 15 years of experience in clinical and hospital settings. I've spent the majority of my career focusing on renal and kidney nutrition, which has included weight management, heart health, and some Diabetes management but I'm also passionate about women's health and fertility as I've navigated my own fertility journey. I shape practical, compassionate guidance for real life. Outside the clinic, you’ll find me in the kitchen cooking and baking, tending to my garden, or dancing and staying active with my husband and kids. I’m an RD and LDN who loves turning science into everyday habits, and I look forward to learning your story and supporting your goals.

Approach to care

I believe care works best when it is evidence-based, compassionate, and doable for real life. My approach is collaborative and non-judgmental, grounded in current research and proven strategies. We’ll work together to build a plan that works for your life, body, and values, with clear steps you can sustain. I practice through holistic view that honors mental, emotional, and physical health. My goal is to empower you with knowledge and skills so you can make informed choices, while keeping nutrition simple, practical, and focused on lasting change. We’ll move at a pace that fits you.

Your first session with Katherine

Our first appointment is all about you. We’ll review your medical history, talk through your routines, and establish a couple of short-term goals to set a clear path forward. We’ll also look at any recent lab work or biometrics to ground our plan in real numbers, but there’s no pressure to have everything perfect before we start. I want you to feel comfortable asking questions and sharing what has and hasn’t worked. Together, we’ll set a realistic starting point and outline the next steps that fit your life today.
