Making dietary changes can be overwhelming, making it difficult to know where to begin. Together we will look at the foods currently stocked in your pantry and refrigerator and discuss potential modifications that will better support you on your nutritional journey to meet your goals.

Meeting you at the grocery store where you shop regularly, I join you on a shopping trip to make recommendations for food selections that are in alignment with your customized plan.

While working together, I will provide recipes and meal suggestions. If you are looking for a weekly meal plan, I am happy to refer you to apps and books that provide meal plans that will fit with my nutritional recommendations based on your goals.

I have partnered with a fabulous chef who I coordinate with and communicate dietary recommendations, preferences and restrictions.
