About Sheila

Hi, I'm Sheila. With 35 years as a Registered Dietitian, I blend science with warmth to help you navigate food and health. I earned my BS and MS in Human Nutrition and have worked in clinical hospital settings and long term care, which gives me a broad view of how nutrition fits into everyday life. I carry postnominals like MS, CSOWM, LDN, and RD, reflecting a career-long commitment to evidence-based practice. When I'm not in the clinic, you'll find me trail running, lifting, cooking new recipes, traveling, or enjoying live music. I believe food should support a life you love, not a list of rules.

Approach to care

My care is built on collaboration, science, and compassion. I believe nourishment works best when we translate evidence into practical steps that fit your life. We'll explore your goals with curiosity, respect, and a focus on long-term change rather than quick fixes. I practice with a Health At Every Size mindset, honoring your body and prioritizing sustainable habits over dieting culture. My approach is holistic and educational, guiding you to understand why certain choices help your overall well being, while you stay empowered to decide what works for you.

Your first session with Sheila

Our first appointment is a warm, judgment-free conversation about you. We'll review your medical history, discuss any lab work and biometrics, and establish short-term goals that feel doable. No need to have it all figured out beforehand; I’ll meet you where you are, and we'll shape a plan that fits your life and values. We'll talk about what to expect next and how we'll support sustainable changes that keep you moving forward with confidence.
