Approach to care

My approach is collaborative, flexible, and rooted in both evidence-based science and holistic nutrition strategies. I support clients of all backgrounds and experience levels through accessible, relatable, and impactful nutrition guidance that fosters a culture of confident, informed fueling. I believe in creating personalized, realistic nutrition plans that fit into your actual life. My goal is to help you build a sustainable mindset around health that supports both your goals and your overall well-being. To me, health goes far beyond just food and movement. Your relationship with your body, your mindset, your habits, and how you care for yourself day-to-day all play a powerful role. I'm passionate about helping you nourish your body, quiet the noise, and feel empowered every step of the way.

Your first session with Kyra

In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other in a judgment-free, collaborative space! I’ll ask about your past and current nutrition habits, lifestyle, health history, and any struggles or concerns you’re facing. Most importantly, we’ll talk about your goals - what you want to feel, achieve, and build! From there, we’ll begin creating a personalized, realistic plan that fits into your life. You’ll leave with clear, actionable next steps designed to support long-term progress and confidence around food and your body.
