About Lauren

I help patients develop a healthy relationship with food to reduce the risk of health conditions such as heart disease and diabetes, while also helping them manage their weight. I also provide nutrition therapy to support behavioral and lifestyle changes and develop a personalized nutrition plan for patients based on a broad base of health conditions such as: autoimmune disorders, cancer, CVD, DM, GI disorders, gestational DM, obesity, pediatric food issues, and renal disease.

Approach to care

I take a personalized holistic approach to care to help patients achieve their health goals. This is a respectful and nonjudgemental space. We use the nutrition care process where we assess, diagnose, intervene, monitor and evaluate. We use active listening and open questions to build rapport with patients.

Your first session with Lauren

In the first appointment we will discuss your medical history in detail, go over any recent labs, and current eating habits. This will help us to get started discussing changes that will work best for you. We will go over your typical diet recall, and we will go over nutrition changes to meet your lifestyle and goals.
