What To Expect

Nutrition Sessions

You will have an information-gathering Initial Assessment and follow up sessions. We will explore many treatment approaches to ensure you are fully supported on this journey. Your goals are unique to you.

The basis for a life of fulfillment is anchored in the fundamentals of nourishing your body, eating intuitively, legalizing all foods, and connecting to your body in a way that is compassionate and sustainable. 

Individualized Care Plan

Your Dietitian will create a thoughtful and organized Care Plan after your first visit. This is updated after each session. This tool is integrated into your client portal for easy access.

Your Care Plan will contain detailed nutrition recommendations, goals, handouts and documents. It is one of the tools to guide you between sessions. We encourage you to share your Care Plan with your treatment team and/or support system.
