Approach to care
As your dietitian, I believe in meeting you where you are. My approach to care is collaborative and supportive, emphasizing practical strategies that fit seamlessly into your lifestyle. Together, we’ll create a personalized nutrition plan that aligns with your health goals, preferences, and unique needs. I take a holistic approach, integrating all aspects of wellness, including stress management, sleep, and physical activity, to help you achieve lasting results.
Your first session with Michelle
During our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and explore your health goals, challenges, and lifestyle. I’ll ask about your medical history, eating habits, and daily routine to create a clear picture of your needs. Together, we’ll outline actionable steps and set realistic, achievable goals that you feel confident about. You can expect a judgment-free space, compassionate guidance, and a tailored plan designed just for you.
