About Tim

Hi, I'm Tim. I'm a Holden Beach, NC based dietitian with six years of experience guiding patients in inpatient and outpatient settings; including acute care/hospital, renal and cardiac rehab. I earned my BS in Nutrition and Dietetics from East Carolina University and DI with Meredith College. When I’m not meeting with clients, you’ll find me fishing, pursuing fitness goals or enjoying the outdoors. I’m grateful to serve this community and help people build practical, lasting healthy habits that fit real life.

Approach to care

I build care on evidence-based science, but I keep the focus on you. My approach is collaborative and holistic, meeting you where you are and translating research into practical steps you can actually try. I aim to be empathetic and warm, offering a judgment-free space where you feel heard and supported. We’ll set clear, action-oriented goals and steady accountability, always prioritizing long term change over quick fixes. I practice from a Health At Every Size perspective that emphasizes behaviors, health markers, and sustainable wellbeing, and I educate so you feel confident in the decisions you make.

Your first session with Tim

Our first appointment is all about you. We'll start by reviewing your medical history, lab work, and biometrics, then listen to your goals, concerns, and daily routines in a non-judgmental space. You don’t need to have everything figured out yet; we’ll shape a practical path together. Expect a warm, collaborative conversation where science informs our plan but your life and preferences guide the choices. By the end, we’ll agree on 1-2 realistic goals to get started and outline what comes next.
