About Susan
Hello and welcome! My name is Susan and I live in Texas with my husband, son, a couple of dogs and a few chickens. I have been a dietitian for more than 20 years and have worked in outpatient diabetes centers, endocrinology clinics, as an inpatient clinical dietitian, and in wellness and weight management settings. I am dedicated to helping individuals reach their health and nutrition goals in a sustainable and realistic manner using evidence-based practices.
Approach to care
Just as all people are individuals, so is my approach to care. Nutrition should be individualized based on your health history, goals, culture, preferences, lifestyle, etc. There is no one size fits all! Over the years I have learned so much from my clients, most important of which, is that you are the expert in YOU. Together, we will decide the best approach to help you reach your goals. I will be there to help you navigate your challenges and celebrate your victories.
Your first session with Susan
On our first visit I will ask you a lot of questions to get to know you better. We will discuss your lifestyle, past and current experiences with health and nutrition, your goals, your biggest challenges, and what has worked in the past. Together we will develop an individualized plan to help you reach your goals.
