About Samantha

I have 6 years of experience working in an outpatient diabetes clinic where I helped patients independently manage their diabetes with diet and reach their goals. I also helped patients with pre diabetes and those who were just trying to lose weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle. My practice experience also expanded to other conditions such as those with other endocrine issues, eating disorders, cardiac issues etc. I love working with people and helping them become the best version of themselves physically and mentally and I truly believe that starts with how we choose to fuel ourselves!

Approach to care

My approach to care involves meeting the patient where they are at. Nutrition and being healthy is all about balance. That means knowing how to enjoy our favorite foods without thinking "Oh I'll gain ten pounds if I eat that!". I am very anti-diet culture and place a heavy focus on intuitive eating and mindfulness. I want my patients to become the best version of themselves.

Your first session with Samantha

The first session will be all about getting to know each other! I will start by interviewing the patient to help assess their needs. I will ask the patient to walk me through what a typical day of eating looks like, what they struggle with the most when it comes to nutrition, and what they want to really work on going forward. It will end with goal setting. Further appointments will include meal planning and further education on the patient's conditions/areas of concern. We are in this together!
