2 Session Types:

1) Medical Nutrition Therapy is a counseling-driven process provided by a Registered Dietitian to guide you toward achieving your personal goals. This is the gold standard of nutrition care and is recommended for those with chronic conditions (i.e., diabetes, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, obesity, and kidney disease) who are curious about improving their dietary and/or exercise habits to reduce disease burden. Think of this like any other type of therapy - it typically takes a few sessions to cement lasting changes.

2) Additionally, I offer a brief education session (on GLP-1 use or balanced nutrition using MyPlate) for those seeking knowledge on these topics.

Explore the session types below to find the right session for you.
