About Lauren
Hey, I’m Lauren, and I cannot wait to work with you! I grew up in Delaware where the local farm stands and annual peach festivals inspired my love for food. Learning where food comes from, how it’s grown, and how to nourish our bodies inspired me to become a Dietitian. My mission is to support my clients in finding satisfaction with their meals while meeting their health goals. Although I am a Delaware native, in 2019 I found my home in Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Here on the shore I love to read on the beach, paint nature scenes, practice yoga, and find all the best sushi spots.
Approach to care
My approach is centered in meeting my clients with compassion and empathy by taking one realistic step at a time based on your lifestyle. Working together we will focus on making changes that are simple, budget friendly, and tailored to your needs. This is a safe space to meet your goals and tackle any physical and emotional challenges with me as your biggest cheerleader!
Your first session with Lauren
In our first appointment we’ll complete a comprehensive nutrition assessment of your health history, current eating habits, your relationship with food, and any key background information. Most importantly we will get to know each other during this first session to tailor your goals to your needs. We will end the session by making a few goals to start you on your journey.
Education
I completed my Bachelor of Science in Dietetics at the University of Delaware, and received my Masters in Family and Consumer Sciences at Fontbonne University.
Hobbies
Living at the beach makes painting beach scenes one of my favorite hobbies. I also enjoy reading fantasy books like The Lord of the Rings. I always am looking out for festivals and events to spend time outdoors with friends and family.
