About Laura

Hi, I’m Laura, a Registered Dietitian with 12 years of experience. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics, and I’ve worked in Dialysis (8 years), Home Health, and Skilled Nursing Facilities. Being at the table with people as they navigate health is where I feel most alive, and I bring my RDN credential with pride to every visit. Outside of work, I love pilates and yoga, tennis, and exploring new places through travel. I’m here to be a steady partner on your nutrition journey, focused on sustainable, real-life changes we’ll build together.

Approach to care

My care philosophy is simple and honest: we work together to build sustainable changes grounded in current science. I use evidence-based strategies, but I lead with empathy and warmth, offering you a judgment-free space. We’ll set clear, doable steps and keep accountability practical. I practice a Health At Every Size (HAES) mindset, staying weight-neutral and focusing on habits and well-being rather than quick fixes. I treat you holistically, considering mental and physical health, sleep, and stress, and I see education as empowerment so you can own your choices as we grow together.

Your first session with Laura

Our first session is all about you. We'll review your medical history, talk through recent lab work and biometrics, and start to understand what short-term goals feel doable. You don't need to arrive with every answer; this is a collaborative conversation where we get to know each other and what matters most to you. We'll discuss your daily meals, routines, and any worries or barriers, and together we'll set a couple of realistic goals and outline the first steps you can begin this week, with ongoing support as you move forward.
