About Samantha
Hi, I'm Samantha, a registered dietitian located in Southern California. I specialize in general adult nutrition and have experience with malnutrition, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, bariatric surgery, and weight management. My goal is to make nutrition easier to understand and for you to be able start or continue your own journey for a healthier lifestyle. Every small step is a step closer to success!
Approach to care
My approach to care centers on personalized and easy going support for each journey. There is no "good" or "bad" foods to focus on but rather what nutrients your body needs in order to achieve a healthier version of you. Together we can work towards realistic goals that will make your journey more attainable without being too overwhelming and complicated.
Your first session with Samantha
In our first session together, we will get to know each other. I would like to get a better understanding of your daily habits, how your relationship with food is, discuss any symptoms, allergies, medical history, lifestyle, and overall goals. Based on this information, we will discuss about where you are with your goals and how we can move forward in a way that best suits your lifestyle.
