Work with me
Personalized, adaptive, and covered by most insurance.
Every session is built around you — your goals, your schedule, your actual preferences. Here’s what to expect and how to get started.
Getting started
How this works, start to finish.
Book a time that works
I see clients through Nourish, an app that handles scheduling and runs your insurance for you. You pick a slot when our availability lines up, and Nourish tells you your cost before you ever sit down with me.
We take stock together
Our first session is mostly me listening. We go through your health history, what you eat now, how you sleep and train and work, and what you actually want to be different. Then we set a goal that’s yours, not a generic one.
We adjust as you go
You leave with one or two concrete things to try, not a fifteen-page plan. We meet again, look at what happened honestly, and change course where we need to. That loop is the whole method.
Personalized
Built around your goals, not a template.
Whether you’re trying to lose weight, gain muscle, sharpen your sports performance, or just feel better day to day, we’ll build a plan that suits your individual needs and preferences. We assess where your health is right now, talk through what you want, and put together nutrition and lifestyle changes tailored specifically to you — the kind you can actually sustain once the novelty wears off.
Adaptive
And it changes when you do.
Everyone learns differently and everyone responds to different kinds of coaching. Part of my job is finding the way your body and your brain best respond to change. And as you start seeing results, your goals often shift — that’s completely normal, and it’s exactly why having someone on your team to guide you beats going it alone.

How you’ll feel
More confident and clearheaded, with steadier energy and deeper sleep.
That’s genuinely what most people notice first — before the scale, before anything else. Feeling like yourself again tends to come before the numbers do.
FAQs
The questions I get most.
Why choose a dietitian over a personal trainer who offers nutrition advice, or a nutritionist?
Great question, I’d love to tell you. A Registered Dietitian Nutritionist has a degree — or several; a bachelor’s at minimum, and a master’s required as of 2024 — in dietetics or nutrition from an accredited university, at least 1,200 hours of supervised practice through an internship, and has passed a rigorous exam covering every corner of the field. That’s what makes sure the information you’re getting is current and actually supported.
Depending on the state you live in, “nutritionist” can be a broad and unprotected term that doesn’t tell you much about someone’s background. Some are great and have exactly the information you need — but the credential is what keeps you safe when you can’t tell the difference.
Coaching seems expensive. Why is it worth it?
I’ll be real with you — even I have a coach. I’m fully capable of writing my own programming, but the fact of the matter is that I need accountability. Even when I know what to do, it’s so valuable having someone more knowledgeable than me on that subject who holds me to it on the days I fall short, and who points out what I accomplished on the days I should be proud of myself.
You don’t have to do this alone. There will be hard days and easy days, and I’m here to make the hard ones more manageable. And because I work through Nourish, most clients use their insurance, which changes the math quite a bit.
I’m super busy and don’t have time to meal prep. Can I still lose weight?
Absolutely. Weight loss is a science and, primarily, a balance between the energy you take in and the energy you expend — though a lot more goes into it than that. As much as fast food and convenience foods get demonized, there are better options out there for when you’re in a crunch, and knowing which ones matters more than having a free Sunday afternoon.
This is genuinely why I named it Balanced Nutrition. Not everything is going to be ideal all of the time. We find the balance between the chaos and the calm and keep your health in the forefront regardless.
Do I have to weigh myself?
Not necessarily. Weight can be a useful indicator of whether we’re trending in the right direction, but there are so many others we can use instead. Non-scale victories work beautifully — your pants fitting differently, family noticing your skin looks healthier. We can take body measurements along the way if that’s more useful to you.
And if all of that sounds daunting, we can go purely on how you feel: your energy, your mental health, your confidence, your sleep. Your weight is not a direct indication of your health, and it is not a measure you should base your self-worth or your progress on.
