About Mandy
I am a dedicated outpatient dietitian with four years of experience helping individuals improve their health and well-being. With a Master's degree focusing on community health and research, I combine a deep understanding of nutrition with a passion for educating others. Outside of work, I love to cook and teach cooking classes for the community, empowering others with practical knowledge to make nutritious meals at home. As an enthusiast of ballroom dancing, I believe that fun movement is just as essential for health as food. Through a combination of expertise, creativity, and genuine care, I am committed to helping clients lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Approach to care
I take a holistic, integrative approach to care, understanding that food can be medicine. I believe that the relationship between diet, lifestyle, and overall health is essential for long-term well-being. In working with clients, I aim to identify core barriers to health, such as stress, time constraints, or emotional factors, which may impact lifestyle choices. This method emphasizes personalized care that not only addresses nutritional needs but also takes into account physical, emotional, and mental well-being to help individuals achieve a balanced life.
Your first session with Mandy
In your first session with me, the focus will be on developing a deep understanding of your personal goals, life factors, and any past health endeavors. I will work with you to identify your unique needs for education or guidance, taking into account your individual challenges and lifestyle. The goal is to collaborate on a set of achievable, personalized goals that are designed to support your long-term health, helping you make sustainable changes that fit your life. Whether it's improving eating habits or addressing specific health concerns, I will guide you every step of the way in a compassionate and supportive environment.
