About
I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with over 19 years of nutrition counseling experience. I have a master’s degree in human nutrition and am a Board Certified Specialist in Obestiy & 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 Crohn’s 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 doctor’s 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’re dealing with their health challenges on their own.

My coaching style

I aim to provide a welcoming, non-judgmental environment, and assume nothing about eating habits or food history until I’ve heard your story. I believe there are no “good” vs “bad” foods; food has no agenda. I believe it’s important to provide the ‘why’ behind common nutrition issues and how food choices affect them. We set realistic, sustainable, achievable goals along the way, according to what you are ready for. Nutrition should not be a mystery, and I am here to help unpack it with you.

Clients are the experts of their own bodies, and one size definitely does not fit all. Together we will learn what your body is telling you, and I can show you how to hear and act on it.

Working with Annette feels like having a true friend on my wellness journey. She has taught me a great deal and I appreciate everything I've learned from her, but more than that I leave every interaction with her feeling supported and powerful.

Annette is fantastic! I have achieved my weight loss goals in our time together, but I've also completely shifted my relationship with food to one that is much more positive, healthy, and sustainable!

Annette has been so wonderful to work with. She helps to educate me on a day to day basis about any dietary concerns or symptom management questions that I have. She reassures my worries throughout the process, and helps me feel supported when I reach out. She’s mindful about the process and takes things slowly, which I feel has been effective so far. She’s helping me make gradual change and investigate the root of the problems that I have. Having only worked with GI doctors before and never a dietitian, I have really felt seen and heard throughout this process, and appreciate the accessibility when it comes to reaching out to Annette on a day to day basis.
