About Lauren

Hi! I'm Lauren, a Registered Dietitian based in the South Carolina Lowcountry. In my nine years as an RD, I have worked in inpatient hospitals, outpatient clinics, and long-term care settings, providing nutrition care to others across all life stages. My passion for nutrition began after years of struggling with GI issues and experiencing firsthand the positive impact that diet modification and nutrition education can have on your life. Whether you are managing chronic conditions, striving to improve energy levels, or simply wanting to live a healthier life, I am so excited to walk alongside you and help you achieve your health and wellness goals.

Approach to care

My care philosophy blends evidence with warmth, compassion, and real-world practicality. I stay grounded in current research while meeting you where you are, honoring your values, routines, and lifestyle. We’ll work together in a direct, action-oriented way, translating science into doable steps that you can maintain long term. I believe that food should be both nourishing and enjoyable, and I love helping clients rediscover that balance.

Your first session with Lauren

Our first appointment is all about you. We’ll review your medical history, labs or biometrics, and talk through your current routines, frustrations, and goals in a nonjudgmental space. This is a collaborative conversation, not an exam, and there’s no need to have it all figured out yet. We’ll establish short term goals and a practical plan, then outline the first steps you can start right away. You’ll leave with clarity, a sense of partnership, and confidence in taking the next right steps toward lasting change.
