About Leah
I am a Registered Dietitian with over 25 years of experience in acute and chronic illness nutrition therapy. I have worked in a variety of settings, including hospitals, Diabetes clinics, Bariatric programs, and private practice. This experience has given me the skills and knowledge to provide high-quality nutrition therapy. I am passionate about helping you achieve optimal health and happiness through personalized, weight-neutral nutrition and wellness counseling. My own lifelong struggles with maintaining a healthy weight as well as the ongoing efforts to balance motherhood and a career, have all fueled my passion for helping others along their health and wellness journeys.
Approach to care
My philosophy is simple: there is no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition and wellness. I believe in creating individualized wellness plans that cater to your unique needs, preferences and lifestyle. Together, we will work as a team to identify and overcome any barriers that may be hindering your progress towards a healthier you.
Your first session with Leah
Your initial visit will take place in a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment where you will be heard and supported. You will lead the discussion to address your health concerns and assess your readiness to change. Together, we will develop realistic and attainable goals. I am here to support you at every step, celebrating your successes and learning from any setbacks.
