About Laura

Hi, I’m Laura, a Registered Dietitian with 9 years of clinical experience helping patients navigate their nutrition needs in the hospital setting. I began my career working in Charleston, South Carolina, and Asheville, North Carolina, and now I’m back home in Michigan, excited to offer guidance and support to those looking to make sustainable nutrition changes at home. While I specialize in nutrition support, including tube feeding and IV nutrition, I have extensive experience managing a wide range of conditions—from GI disorders such as liver disease, pancreatitis, Crohn’s/UC, and bowel surgeries to cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease, and general health.

Approach to care

My approach is all about balance—because as a true foodie, I believe every food has a place in our lives. Whether you're managing a medical condition or simply looking to improve your health, I'm here to help you create realistic, lasting changes that make a real impact.

Your first session with Laura

In the first session we’ll spend time getting to know each other, and I’ll gather some key information to better understand your needs. This will include diving into your medical history, lab results, and nutrition background, as well as chatting about your lifestyle and goals. My goal is to make this a positive, stress-free experience where you feel heard and empowered to make meaningful changes!
