About Yvette
Hi, I'm Yvette, a Registered Dietitian with 30 years of experience. I earned my Dietetics degree from the University of Delaware, and I’ve spent my career in clinical and hospital care, corporate wellness, community health, and government programs. I’m proud to hold the credentials RDN, LD, RD, and to help people build lasting habits rather than quick fixes. When I’m not working, I enjoy walking, hiking, and building with LEGO in my downtime. I’m based in Atlanta, Georgia.
Approach to care
My care philosophy is to meet you where you are and grow with you toward sustainable health. I'm evidence-based and science-focused, grounding our plan in current research and practical strategies. I'm empathetic and warm, offering a judgment-free space where you feel heard. We'll work together with direct, actionable steps that fit your life and values. I practice through a Health At Every Size lens, focusing on behaviors, nourishment, and wellness rather than numbers. My own journey losing over 100 pounds reminds me that lasting change happens one steady choice at a time.
Your first session with Yvette
Our first appointment is all about you. Think of it as a conversation, not an evaluation, where we'll get to know your goals, challenges, health concerns, and daily routines. We'll review your medical history, current eating patterns, and support systems in a warm, non-judgmental space. You don't need to have it all figured out yet; we'll identify 1 or 2 achievable next steps and tailor a plan that fits your life. Together, we'll set you up to feel confident and supported as we begin this journey.
