About Katie

Hi! My name is Katie Shannon and I have been a Registered Dietitian for 3 1/2 years. I graduated from Syracuse University with an interest in clinical nutrition and since then have gained acute care experience by providing medical nutrition therapy to patients with various disease states including heart disease, renal disease, diabetes, and nutrition support. I have enjoyed learning about different disease states and how impactful nutrition truly is on our health and wellness. I can't wait to hear about your relationship with your nutrition and to help you achieve your health goals!

Approach to care

I take an individualized and anti-diet approach. I want to focus on your individualized nutrition plan that caters to your specific needs. I believe in realistic and sustainable goal planning that will allow for a lifestyle change rather than a quick fix that may not fix the root of the nutrition problem. We will discuss how to have a better relationship with food that incorporates intuitive eating yet still enjoying the foods you love!

Your first session with Katie

For your first session, we will spend some time getting to know each other. I want to hear about your experience with nutrition struggles or goals in the past along with your concerns and desires moving forward. We will discuss food, nutrition, and lifestyle changes to help personalize your nutrition plan to achieve your nutrition and health goals.
