About

I'm a registered dietitian who works with patients using evidence-based nutrition assessment and personalized meal planning to address chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and digestive disorders. I take a collaborative approach, combining detailed food histories with motivational interviewing techniques to help you identify the specific dietary changes that will work for your lifestyle. I offer comprehensive telehealth consultations that make it easy to access nutrition care from home.

Services offered

I provide comprehensive nutrition counseling for patients managing type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, cardiovascular disease, and gastrointestinal conditions including IBS and celiac disease. My approach combines medical nutrition therapy with behavior change strategies—I use detailed dietary assessments, carbohydrate counting instruction, and elimination diet protocols tailored to your specific diagnosis. I work with individuals seeking weight management support, athletes optimizing performance, pregnant patients, and those managing food sensitivities or allergies. A typical telehealth session involves a thorough nutrition history, lab review if applicable, personalized meal plan development, and practical strategies for implementation. Follow-up visits focus on progress monitoring, recipe refinement, and adjustment of your nutrition plan based on your results and feedback.
