About Sallie
Hi, I'm Sallie, a Registered Dietitian with 11 years of experience, based in Chapin, South Carolina. I earned my degree from Virginia Tech and have worked in clinical and hospital settings, community health, dialysis, long-term care, and bariatric/weight management. I am committed to evidence-based care and ongoing learning. When I'm not meeting with clients, I enjoy yoga, strength training, and following sports. I believe you deserve a warm, nonjudgmental partner who helps you build a healthier relationship with food, at a pace that fits your life and goals.
Approach to care
I practice with a collaborative, person-centered style that honors your goals and your pace. My approach is evidence-based and educational, so we translate current science into practical steps you can actually use. I work with you in a direct and action-oriented way, focusing on sustainable changes rather than quick fixes. We'll look at sleep, stress, exercise, and nutrition as interconnected pieces, and I'll help you build skills you can carry forward with confidence.
Your first session with Sallie
Our first appointment is all about you. We'll start by reviewing your medical history in a way that's thorough but not overwhelming, and we will gently explore your relationship with food to understand how it shows up in your daily life. There is no pressure to have everything perfect before we talk; this session is a conversation, not an exam. Together we'll identify 1-3 achievable short-term goals and map out small, sustainable steps. I want you to feel heard, supported, and confident in moving forward at a pace that fits you.
