What to Expect When Working With Us

You Are Worthy and Welcome Here

Our approach to nutrition is different. If you’ve ever met with a dietitian before, here’s how we stand apart:

  • We take the confusion out of how to eat and fuel your body.

  • We prioritize well-being and overall health status over weight loss.

  • We use a client-centered practice model—helping you uncover the “why” behind your eating patterns and guiding you toward meaningful change.

  • Sessions feel personal and tailored, built around your lived experiences and unique goals.

  • We integrate nutrition and psychology, drawing on intuitive and mindful eating approaches for sustainable progress.

  • Think a “healthy for life” approach — NOT a “diet” approach!

What to Expect at Your First Appointment

Your first Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) session is all about you—your health, your goals, and your path to feeling your best. During this appointment, your registered dietitian will:

  • Get to Know You – We’ll discuss your medical history, lifestyle, eating habits, and any specific health concerns.

  • Set Personalized Goals – Based on your needs, we’ll create a tailored plan to help you achieve sustainable, long-term success.

  • Provide Expert Guidance – Whether it's meal planning, addressing digestive issues, weight management, or managing a chronic condition, your dietitian will offer practical, evidence-based advice.

  • Develop a Plan Together – You’ll leave with clear, actionable steps to start making positive changes right away.

This is a judgment-free, supportive space where we work together to find what works best for you. Have questions? We’re here to help!

What to Expect at Your Follow-Up Appointments

Progress takes time, and follow-up sessions are where we refine, adjust, and support your goals step by step. During these visits, your registered dietitian will:

  • Check In on Progress – Celebrate successes, troubleshoot challenges, and keep you moving forward.

  • Fine-Tune Your Plan – Adjust nutrition recommendations as your health, labs, or goals evolve.

  • Offer Practical Strategies – From grocery shopping and meal planning to dining out tips, recipe swaps, and stress management tools.

  • Provide Accountability & Motivation – Regular check-ins keep you focused, motivated, and supported.

  • Support Long-Term Health – Ensure your nutrition plan grows with you, helping you feel your best at every stage.

You Are Supported at Every Step

There’s no one-size-fits-all plan for nutrition. We meet you where you are and walk alongside you to:

  • Build a personalized eating structure that fits your lifestyle.

  • Normalize your relationship with food and support positive beliefs around eating.

  • Explore how emotions may be affecting your eating habits and health goals.

  • Provide sound, evidence-based advice on food, nutrition, and common myths.

  • Empower you with skills like grocery shopping, label reading, and meal prep.

  • Share practical tools including cooking tips, recipe ideas, and snack swaps your whole family can enjoy.

Our promise: Every session is about helping you feel empowered, confident, and supported on your path toward better health.
