About Leanne

Hi, I'm Leanne, a Registered Dietitian (RD, RDN, LD) based in St. Louis MO. I bring 5 years of experience as an RD and a diverse culinary background that informs my approach. My education includes a B.S. in Culinary Nutrition, an A.S. in Culinary Arts, and a 26-week ACEND accredited internship with 1200 hours of supervised practice, followed by passing the national registration exam. I’ve worked in clinical and hospital settings, healthcare foodservice management, and as a personal chef and in hospitality kitchens. When I’m not seeing clients, I love cooking, tending my garden, and staying active.

Approach to care

My care is grounded in evidence-based science, but every plan is shaped by you. I strive to be empathetic and warm, creating a judgment-free space where you feel seen and heard. I encourage focusing on sustainable behaviors rather than dieting culture, and I consider you as a whole person—body, mind, and life. Education is central, so you leave each session with knowledge you can use to make informed choices.

Your first session with Leanne

Think of our first session as a conversation about you. We’ll review your medical history and any lab work or biometrics, discuss your goals, concerns, and daily routines, and start shaping a plan that fits your life. We’ll set 1 or 2 realistic goals to begin with and outline practical steps for the coming weeks. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet; you can come as you are. I’ll meet you where you are, and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable and hopeful.
