Your first session with Sheila

During your first session with Sheila, she will begin by discussing the reason for your visit and taking time to understand your health concerns, food preferences, and personal goals for nutrition counseling. Together, you will review any relevant medical history, lab results, and your physician’s recommendations to ensure a coordinated and personalized approach to care. Sheila will work with you to create realistic, short-term goals and practical meal planning strategies that fit your lifestyle. These achievable steps are designed to help you gradually build healthier habits and meaningful behavior changes. Over time, these changes support long-term success and progress toward your overall health goals. Rather than focusing on restrictive dieting, Sheila emphasizes sustainable behavior modification that promotes lasting results. Diets are temporary, but healthy habits and behavior change can support a lifetime of improved health, confidence, and well-being.
