About Michelle
My name is Michelle and I have been a Registered Dietitian for nearly 5 years. After struggling with my weight, body and food choices for years, I focused on changing my mindset and approach through small and reasonably attainable goals. Rules and diets never worked for me, but knowledge did. I specialize primarily in weight loss, weight gain, Gastrointestinal Disorders (IBS/IBD, GERD, Crohn's, UC), disordered eating, and exercise specific nutrition. Additionally, my experience centers around pre -natal, post-natal, infant and pediatric nutrition.
Approach to care
I became a dietitian because I LOVE food. My approach centers around helping you successfully eat the foods you love too. There is no one-size fits all approach to nutrition or health, so I strive to work with the patient to meet their goals--no matter how big or small-- with an individualized plan that focuses on mini-action plans. My mission is to make food work for you and your lifestyle, not the other way around!
Your first session with Michelle
Most of the first session will be listening. In order to understand how to individualize your care plan, I need to know YOU. The first session will yield a few mini actions to get the ball rolling, but will largely be focused on your previous experiences and determining your motivations.
