About Nichole

Hi, I'm Nichole. I'm a Registered Dietitian with a Doctorate in Clinical Nutrition, grounded in six years of experience. I've worked in clinical and hospital settings as well as private practice, bringing evidence-based nutrition to people of all ages. I'm proud to be a military veteran, and I blend my clinical training with a holistic, whole-person approach to care. When I'm not meeting with clients, I love hiking, weightlifting, reading, cooking, and tending my garden here in beautiful Idaho. I'm excited to accompany you on your health journey.

Approach to care

Together, we'll build a partnership grounded in science and compassion. I practice evidence-based nutrition and translate the latest research into practical, day-to-day steps. I meet you where you are, with warmth and non-judgment, always honoring your values and life. My approach is holistic: I consider your sleep, stress, movement, and routines alongside what you eat. I believe in sustainable changes that fit real life, not guilt or diets. We'll educate you, empower your choices, and set clear, achievable actions.

Your first session with Nichole

Our first session is all about you. Think of it as a conversation, not an evaluation. We'll start by reviewing your medical history, and any lab work or biometrics you've had recently, and we'll discuss short-term goals that feel doable this week or month. There is no need to arrive with perfect answers, I want you to come as you are. We'll explore what matters most to you, your lifestyle, and your concerns, and together we'll shape a simple, personalized plan to get you moving forward with confidence.
