About Kirby
Nutrition counseling is my passion and I have worked in outpatient and private practice settings for my whole career. My background includes working with prenatal and postpartum clients and I currently focus on helping clients with weight management, blood sugar control and hormone health. I also enjoy being an accountability partner to establish new routines around meal planning and exercise. Helping clients understand how to feel better through habit changes, nutrition education and mindset shifts is the best part of my day.
Approach to care
I approach counseling with a non-judgemental mindset and always consider the goals of the client above all else. I use a non-diet approach to improve habits, create lasting change, improve energy & foster a sense of health and vitality! I love helping clients understand how to nourish themselves and figure out how to fit new habits seamlessly into their lives. I always meet clients where they are with a very personalized approach. There's no such thing as one size fits all, so together we'll establish a long term plan that works for you.
Your first session with Kirby
In the first session we'll talk through a full health history, nutrition concerns, medical concerns, daily schedules, current meal and beverage intake, relationship with food and a variety of other nutrition-related topics. Then together we'll establish all of the outcomes you're looking for. Based on the conversation as a whole, we'll lay out 1-2 actionable goals to start working towards the long term outcomes.
