About Patti
Hi, I'm Patti. I'm a Registered Dietitian with 15 years of experience and a foundation in BS Health Education, AS Nutrition, and BS Nutrition. I've worked in clinical and hospital settings, private practice, community health, and corporate wellness, which helps me tailor plans to real life. I carry the credentials of CEDS and LDN along with my RD. I enjoy hiking, gardening, cooking, watching movies, and reading in my downtime.
Approach to care
Together we build a care plan grounded in evidence and real life. I believe in an empathetic, warm, non-judgmental approach and practice from a holistic, educational, weight-neutral lens aligned with HAES principles. My goal is lasting change through clear steps, accountability, and practical skills you can use daily. We consider how food fits with your mental health, sleep, stress, and everyday routines so you can make informed choices that feel doable and sustainable.
Your first session with Patti
Our first appointment is all about you. We'll review your medical history, establish short-term goals, and create a meal plan together. You don't need to have it all figured out yet; I want you to feel supported and heard. We'll talk through your current routines and preferences, set realistic steps, and start building a plan that fits your life and empowers you toward lasting change. My goal is to individualize your treatment approach.
