Your first session with Yvonne

This session will include but not limited to a review of: medical history, biochemical information and nutrition-eating patterns and lifestyle. Subsequent nutrition counseling sessions will include but not limited to, shared decision making whereby the RDN and client will work in collaboration to focus on the client’s short and long term goals, nutrition and food preferences, and challenges affecting nutritional choices and lifestyle. The client will hopefully be inspired to make sustainable nutrition and healthcare decisions.
