Kathleen Kennedy

About Kathleen

I'm a Registered Dietitian specializing in sustainable weight loss, bariatric nutrition, and GLP-1-supported care. I currently work with bariatric patients in a clinical setting, and I also use a GLP-1 medication myself - giving me firsthand understanding of the challenges, wins, and mindset shifts that come with these journeys. I'm passionate about helping clients feel empowered, confident, and in control of their health with realistic, evidence-based strategies.

Approach to care

My style is supportive, straightforward, and judgement-free. I focus on practical nutrition education, habit building, and strategies that work with your lifestyle, not against it. Whether you're preparing for bariatric surgery, navigating post-operative nutrition, or trying to maximize success on a GLP-1, I am here to help you find what feels doable and sustainable. I blend my clinical expertise with my lived experience, so you receive guidance that's realistic, effective, and tailored to your goals.

Your first session with Kathleen

Your first session is all about you. We'll discuss your goals, medical history, daily routine, eating patterns, and any challenges that you've been facing - including appetite challenges, plateaus, or surgical considerations. Together, we will create a clear, personalized plan for your next steps, including what to focus on immediately and how to build momentum. You'll leave with specific and achievable action items and a sense of direction, support, and confidence moving forward.
