About Linda
Outside of my work as a dietitian, life is full of adventure with my two young kids. We love spending time outdoorsâhiking, swimming, and discovering new places together. Before entering the world of nutrition, I spent 13 years as a music teacher, where I learned the importance of patience, connection, and supporting others in reaching their goals. Those same values shape how I work with clients today: with empathy, encouragement, and a down-to-earth approach. I also have two very sweet dogs, Mia and Oshie!
Approach to care
My approach to nutrition care is practical, compassionate, and rooted in real life. I take a plant-forward, whole-person approachâfocusing not just on whatâs on your plate, but on whatâs going on in your life. With personal experience managing diabetes and balancing the demands of a busy family, I meet you where you are and work alongside you to create realistic, sustainable habits that support your health and well-being.
Your first session with Linda
In our first session, you can expect a supportive, judgment-free space where we focus on you. Weâll talk about your goals, daily routines, challenges, and whatâs worked (or hasnât) in the past. I bring the nutrition expertise, but you bring something just as importantâyour lived experience. Together, weâll build a plan that fits your life, not the other way around. My goal is to make sure you feel heard, empowered, and confident about taking the next step.
