About Kathryn
Hello! I have been a Registered Dietitian for over 16 years and have been lucky enough to work with children, adults and seniors. I have worked in long term care, hospitals, outpatient clinics and have taught nutrition classes throughout my community. One of my favorite experiences was co-developing/teaching a "Healthy Dancer" class for a local dance studio alongside a physical therapist. When I am not in "dietitian mode," I love spending time with my husband and kiddos, being outside in the yard (when it's not freezing here in Northeast Ohio) or reading.
Approach to care
I like to think of myself as a realist dietitian- making changes is NOT easy for everyone. I know not everyone is in the same place in their health journey. Everyone is at different stages of life, has different financial needs, time constraints and different goals. I do not take a "one size fits all" approach to nutrition- let's work on specific, achievable and personalized goals that set you up for success. I believe in creating healthy habits and making small changes- one step at a time. Whether you have specific medical concerns or want to improve and optimize your overall health, I am here to support you every step of the way.
Your first session with Kathryn
Our first visit will help us get to know one another. I want to understand your reasons for seeking support from me. I’ll ask many questions related to your eating patterns, lifestyle, and health history. By the end of our first session together, we’ll establish some goals or action items to help move forward for our future sessions. Let's set you up for success- I will be by your side to help you every step of the way!
