About Kayla
Hello there! My name is Kayla and I look forward to getting to know you! Here is a little about me: I was born and raised in a small Colorado town and moved to the city to completed my bachelor’s degree and dietetic internship, all the while raising my now 13 year old daughter. I now reside in Colorado Springs, Colorado where I currently work as an inpatient clinical dietitian, as well as an outpatient dietitian. I have extensive experience in the clinical world working with diabetes management, heart disease, renal and liver disease, enteral and parenteral nutrition support, disordered eating, and gut health. I also have vast experience providing outpatient counseling for weight management, intuitive eating, disordered eating, pediatric nutrition, and everything in between. I am passionate about helping navigate everything from eating with chronic conditions, weight loss, or even just general healthy eating recommendations for you or your children.
Approach to care
My approach to care is to provide you with practical, evidenced based nutrition recommendations for sustainable change. I am here to hold you accountable and to guide you in reaching your nutrition goals. We will work together to create a plan of action for lifestyle change.
Your first session with Kayla
I tend to dedicate the first session to getting to know you. We will review your goals, medical history, any recent lab work, lifestyle factors, and typical eating patterns. This first appointment is the framework for all future appointments together.
