About Theresa
Hi, I'm Theresa. I bring 30 years of experience as a Registered Dietitian, with hands-on work in clinical and hospital care, research and academia, and community health. I earned my MS in Nutrition Science from Texas Woman's University and hold the credentials RD, and LD. I love translating science into practical steps you can use every day. When I'm not seeing patients, you’ll find me cooking, exploring new foods, reading, or planning my next trip. I’m grateful to walk beside you toward healthier, lasting habits.
Approach to care
My care philosophy blends evidence-based practice with a warm, collaborative partnership. I stay current with research and translate it into clear, doable actions we can implement together. We'll set practical goals, track progress with steady accountability, and adjust as needed. I practice Health At Every Size with a weight-neutral, holistic lens, focusing on behaviors and vitality rather than numbers. I aim to educate and empower you, honoring your unique life, values, and journey toward sustainable health.
Your first session with Theresa
Our first appointment is a welcoming conversation designed to reduce anxiety and feel collaborative. We'll review your medical history, labs and biometrics, and talk about short-term goals and what success looks like for you. You don't need to have it all figured out yet; I’ll listen and together we'll explore what's working and what isn't. We'll set 1 or 2 realistic goals and outline a plan that fits your life, so you leave with clarity and support for the next steps.
