About Mindy

Hi, I'm Mindy, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist based in Baltimore, Maryland. I bring 28 years of experience helping people build healthier relationships with food through evidence-based practice. I have a BS in Dietetics and a second bachelor’s in Advertising Communications, and I’ve worked in clinical and hospital settings, community health, oncology, renal, prenatal, and cardiology. I specialize in diabetes care and education. My interests include cooking, baking, reading, walking, gardening, and practicing yoga. I’m credentialed as an RDN and LDN, and I’m devoted to practical, sustainable change you can really live with. I look forward to getting to know you and your unique goals.

Approach to care

I believe nutrition care should be collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based. We'll blend science with a holistic view of you as a person, mind, body, and environment, so we can build a plan that fits your values and lifestyle. I use a Health At Every Size lens and focus on sustainable habits rather than quick fixes, meeting you where you are and moving at a pace that respects your readiness. My approach is educational and action-oriented, giving you practical steps and the confidence to show up for yourself with kindness and consistency.

Your first session with Mindy

Our first session is a warm, judgment-free conversation designed to put you at ease. We'll review your medical history, discuss your goals, and explore your relationship with food in the context of daily life. You don't need to come with all the answers; together we'll establish short-term goals and review lab work or biometrics to ground our plan. We'll outline a realistic path that integrates nutrition, movement, and self-care therapies, so you feel supported as we begin this collaborative journey.
