Kristin Sladek

About Kristin

I’m a registered dietitian with over 30 years of experience, passionate about helping people achieve lasting wellness through personalized nutrition. I took a few nutrition classes in college and quickly realized I’d found my calling. I take a functional approach to care—supporting clients in all stages of life. From navigating women’s health (pre/post menopause), to optimizing athletes’ nutrition, tackling pediatric needs, and managing chronic conditions like diabetes and cancer—I meet clients where they are. I help them set SMART goals and break changes into sustainable steps that promote whole-body health. Clients often tell me they feel heard and supported. I listen deeply and offer personal attention beyond sessions. I live with my husband, three kids, three cats, and a dog. I love nature, travel, and cozying up with a book. After much reflection, I’ve come to deeply value the gift of one amazing life—and I help others do the same.

Approach to care

My approach to care involves listening, motivational interviewing techniques, and an evidence-based (science and research based) approach to guide my patients to being able to make lasting changes to their health. Through the use of behavior modification, realistic goal setting, and understanding nutrition and your own body's needs, we will work together to improve your health.

Your first session with Kristin

In our first session, expect us to get to know each other and to set some goals. We will begin to dig into what it is that needs changing, modifying, or addition to your lifestyle. I believe strongly in making SMART goals and breaking down those goals into reasonable steps to achieve lasting health benefits.
