About Samuel

My passion for nutrition was born out of struggle - not external struggle mind you, but internal. Issues with health, body image, self-esteem, and knowledge. I first set out on this path to help myself. I believed that knowledge was the only key to unlocking potential, to accomplish every goal that seemed to always be just beyond my reach. Now in my 7th year of professional practice as a registered dietitian, passion is helping over 1000 individuals achieve not just physical change, but mental and personal growth. It's not just about what we eat, but how we frame our thoughts, our internal narrative that helps us build a relationship with our nutrition and lives.

Approach to care

My approach is not just imparting knowledge as it pertains to nutrition, but also guiding individuals toward being their own advocate in finding autonomy - and that is where my true passion lies. Importantly, growth can be a constant work in progress - a parallel I apply to myself. The past and present work with others over the years continues to be a catalyst toward that, and each of you plays a part. So THANK YOU for the opportunity to work together, the approaches we apply (of which there may be many), all which challenges my own thinking and practice to strive to become the best professional I can be - to be the best team WE can be!

Your first session with Samuel

Our first order of business will always be a focus on relationship building - among my biggest goals is for you to feel comfortable, be heard, and understand that you always have a safe space to speak your mind, share your struggles, and experience the opportunity to relate to one another. This is the seed from which we become rooted, grow, and reach true potential.
