About Kyla
I have been a dietitian for 12+ years, mostly in the clinical world. While I am an expert at acute nutrition care, I am also eager to help patients who need a nutrition advice beyond the hospital stay. My biggest passion is helping patients unlearn harmful, and outdated dieting practices. Helping patients see that their worth is not attached to a number on the scale, or the size of their clothing is the most rewarding.
Approach to care
If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of facing huge, sudden, life-altering changes to your nutrition, I am the right person to work with to help you realize how the simple and manageable changes add up. I am not interested in guilting you into drastically altering your day to day life; I would much rather work with you to come up with a stepwise approach that you feel good about sustaining over the long term. You will have just as much of a say as I do in how we approach your care.
Your first session with Kyla
Our initial consultation will include finding out more about your goals, including the motivation for change. Does a new medical diagnoses prompt the change or are you trying to prevent chronic diseases in the future? We will go over any labs, weight changes, physical changes that have caused you to seek out a nutrition expert. Together we can build a plan to get you to your goal, while avoiding disordered eating or fad dieting.
