About Lauren

Hi, I’m Lauren. I’ve spent 15 years helping people in outpatient settings build healthier, more sustainable relationships with food. I earned my MS from McNeese State University and I practice as an RD with LDN credentials, grounded in evidence and a holistic perspective. I’m based in Gonzales, Louisiana, and when I’m not meeting with clients I love spending time with my family. I bring warmth, curiosity, and a steady, collaborative approach to every visit.

Approach to care

My care philosophy is simple: we rely on current science to guide us, but we never forget the person in front of us. I practice with empathy and warmth, meeting you where you are and partnering with you to uncover the habits that truly fit your life. We set clear, doable steps and track progress together, so you feel supported rather than pressured. I embrace a weight-neutral, HAES-inspired approach and focus on holistic health, education, and sustainable changes that empower you to own your well being.

Your first session with Lauren

Our first appointment is all about you and what you want to achieve. Think of it as a conversation where we get to know each other and lay a foundation for your path forward. We'll review your medical history and lab work, discuss your daily routines, and establish short-term goals. Together, we'll create a practical meal plan that fits your preferences and life, and we’ll outline the steps you can take this week. No pressure to have every detail worked out yet just bring your questions and your story, and we’ll go from there.
