About Nicole

Hi, I’m Nicole, an MS, RD and RDN. I have two years of experience as a Registered Dietitian, and I trained at Montclair State University and Saint Elizabeth University. I’ve worked in school food service, where I saw how the food environment shapes choices and health. Outside of work I love staying active by playing sports, hiking, and kayaking, and I enjoy cooking and sharing meals with family and friends while playing card or board games. I’m here to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered on your health journey.

Approach to care

My care philosophy is grounded in science, compassion, and collaboration. I use evidence-based strategies so we can translate research into practical steps you can apply in real life, while honoring your values and life context. I work with you in a judgment-free, warm and collaborative way, focusing on sustainable habits rather than quick fixes. We adopt a weight-neutral, health at every size approach, and I consider sleep, stress, and relationships as part of your overall well being. My goal is to educate you so you can confidently make decisions that fit your life.

Your first session with Nicole

Our first appointment is a warm, no judgment conversation focused on you. We'll review your medical history and any recent lab work or biometrics, and we’ll establish short-term goals together. You don’t need to have everything figured out yet; think of it as a first step to understand what matters most to you and how we can support it. We’ll talk about your current routines, challenges, and what success looks like for you, and we’ll outline a simple plan with clear next steps you can start on.
