How do I get started?

Click here to schedule your 15-minute discovery call. In this call, you’ll discuss your nutrition goals, eating habits, past dieting experiences, your relationship with food, and your goals for the future. If I feel we’re a good match for counseling, I’ll explain how I can help you reach your goals, answer your questions about the process, and help you decide if a package makes sense for you.

What happens in the first session?

During this 60-minute initial session, I'll get to know you, your loved one’s, or your dog’s relationship with food on a much deeper level. We will discuss your past and present experiences, and begin to understand the origins of food preferences, illness, or beliefs. I'll also provide education on a pertinent topic like - intuitive eating, diet culture, picky eating, dog nutritional needs, and much more. Then, we’ll talk about your big picture goals, what success will look like for you, and identify specific areas of healing that we’ll work on together in future sessions. You’ll walk away from this initial session with clear steps to start making positive changes to your mindset and behaviors.

Do I need more than one session?

Most people need 3 or more follow up sessions, Dogs may be fine with just 1 or 2 sessions. Everyone has different nutrition goals therefore, number of sessions is based off of your own individual needs. During your discovery call you’ll gain a better understanding of how many sessions we’ll be best for you. We offer pay as you go sessions or session packages at a discounted rate.

How long does the process take?

It depends. Your progress will vary depending on your goals, lifestyle, readiness to change, support system and more. True, long-lasting change takes commitment, introspection, time, and support. We’ll dig deep to find the root of your concerns in order to develop healthier habits that feel intuitive and enjoyable for the rest of your life.

Do you accept insurance?

We not accept insurance directly. All appointments are considered fee-for-service, meaning you are expected to pay at the time of service. You may be able to use a health savings account.

Upon receipt of payment, I will gladly provide you with a receipt to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Some, but not all, insurance companies do cover medical nutrition therapy. If you have out-of-network benefits as part of your health insurance, you may be able to be reimbursed a percentage of the fee for my services. To determine whether your insurance will reimburse you, you should contact them directly.

What is the difference between a "Registered Dietitian" and a "Nutritionist"?

Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist, but only a registered dietitian (RD) or registered dietitian-nutritionist (RDN) has the credentials to prove their expertise. Although some RDs choose to call themselves nutritionists, other individuals with no formal nutrition education may also use the term to sound more credible.

In addition to holding a bachelor's degree, an RD or RDN must fulfill an accredited nutrition curriculum, complete over 1200 hours of supervised practice at a health care facility, and pass a rigorous registration exam. They must also take continuing education credits annually for their entire life to maintain their RD or RDN credential.
