About Shiseida
Hi, I'm Shiseida, but you can call me Sayde! As a dietitian, I'm all about empowering people to take charge of their health. I have a Master's in Social Work from The University of Michigan and a second Bachelor's in Dietetics from Eastern Michigan University. My career has taken me through hospitals, community programs, outpatient counseling, and corporate wellness. Right now, I'm the lead nutrition specialist in an employee wellness program, offering personalized nutrition coaching, workshops, and cooking demos. I also teach sessions on heart health and diabetes prevention. When I'm not working, you'll find me playing volleyball, gardening, or staying active with my daughter.
Approach to care
My approach to care is all about creating a supportive and judgment-free environment. I focus on understanding each client's unique needs and goals, and I believe in balanced, enjoyable meals that fuel the body. I guide clients in making actionable steps that align with their health objectives, always encouraging a positive and proactive mindset. Together, we work towards sustainable, healthy habits that fit seamlessly into their lifestyle.
Your first session with Shiseida
In our first session, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment where you'll feel truly seen and heard. We'll chat about your unique health goals, preferences, and any concerns you might have. I'll ask questions like, "What are your main health goals?" and "What challenges have you faced in the past?" We'll also talk about your current barriers and past successes. I want to get to know you as a person and understand what truly matters to you. Together, we'll develop the next steps towards achieving your goals, setting the foundation for a supportive and empowering journey towards better health. I'll be here to provide accountability and encouragement every step of the way.
