I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with over 19 years of nutrition counseling experience. I have a masters degree in human nutrition and am a Board Certified Specialist in Obesity & Weight Management (CSOWM), though I also utilize the Intuitive Eating approach where needed. I specialize in working with clients who have a history of chronic dieting and are seeking to make lasting habit changes or repair their relationship with food, as well as those seeking help for gut issues, heart health, diabetes and pre-diabetes, and menopause. My extended family has dealt with an extensive number of digestive issues, from chronic disease to ulcerative colitis to eosinophilic esophagitis to IBS. Seeing them struggle and knowing that nutrition can help improve their lives, and the lives of clients dealing with similar issues, is what drives me to push harder. I have heard so many stories of people feeling unheard at the doctors office; granted, medical providers have limited time with patients. I make it clear to my clients: I have the time and I will listen. No one should need to suffer and feel like they are dealing with their health challenges on their own.
