About Laura
Hi, I'm Laura Kerns, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. I am passionate about using food to help heal and nourish the body, and helping clients feel their best. I started my career in the wellness space, mostly focused on weight loss, diabetes care, and fitness. I then spent 10 years working in oncology nutrition, then transitioned to an integrative oncology practice where I became very focused on the whole person, and how lifestyle, genetics, medications, environment, and other factors all play a part in nutrition and health.
Approach to care
My approach is to focus on the individual and their goals. I have learned to listen more and talk less. Every individual is the expert on their own health and their own body, and the more I learn about you the more I can help! I focus on establishing realistic goals and improvements over time. I work to create plans that are sustainable, enjoyable, and guilt free!
Your first session with Laura
Your first visit will be for me to get to know you, your health history, your current habits, and your personal goals. I find establishing a provider-client rapport to be essential to success. I want you to look forward to each visit! Together we will establish the 1-2 most crucial areas to work on for your subsequent visits, so that you can start to see and feel the results you are hoping for!
