Being healthy can mean different things to different people, and it’s SO important to find the right changes that will fit into your life. I’d love to help you take steps towards the healthiest version of yourself. Together, we can look at your current lifestyle (and any medical issues) and determine a nutrition and wellness plan that works for you. I provide nutrition coaching services both virtually and in the Charlotte, NC.
Specialties
While I see a variety of conditions, my specialties are:
–> Nutrition and Wellness for the Working Woman- Sometimes it’s hard to figure out how to best nourish your body while also juggling the demands of work and personal life. Lack of time, high stress levels and the plethora of nutrition gimmicks thrown at us each day are all factors that can keep us from making the best nutrition decisions. Small nutrition changes can lead to big results. Let’s work together to build sustainable habits in your diet that will help you feel your best and last long-term. Learn more

Appointment Information
My appointment structure is described below. Helping you meet your goals is an ongoing journey that needs continuous motivation and support. Most of my clients work with me for several months before they feel comfortable and confident to navigate their diets more independently. Office sessions are available in Charlotte, NC. Virtual and telephone sessions are also available.
Initial Consultation
Your initial nutrition consultation will create the foundation to meeting your nutrition goals. We will discuss your primary nutrition concerns and what you hope to accomplish by visiting a registered dietitian nutritionist. Your initial consultation will begin with a full nutrition assessment, which will include evaluating your past medical history, current medications, weight trends, lifestyle, daily intake and eating habits. From there, we will provide insight on the first steps you can take towards meeting your nutrition and wellness goals. You will receive personalized nutrition tips as well as meal and snack ideas.
Follow-Up Sessions
Pursuing change, especially as it relates to health and wellness, is an ongoing journey. Follow-up sessions give you the continuous support and motivation you need to meet your health and wellness goals. During these sessions, we will assess how you are doing and address any obstacles you have encountered since your previous visit. Follow-up sessions are also the perfect opportunity to answer any questions that have come up and set new goals. Creating lifestyle changes takes time and multiple visits can help you continue to move forward.
