While I strive to support a variety of nutrition needs, I do not specialize in:
Eating disorders requiring intensive treatment (anorexia, bulimia, ARFID) – I recommend working with a registered dietitian specializing in ED recovery.
Medical nutrition therapy for complex clinical conditions (kidney disease, tube feeding, severe gastrointestinal disorders)
Food allergies and anaphylactic conditions – I recommend working with a dietitian specializing in food allergy management.
Sports nutrition for elite athletes – I can support general active lifestyles but do not specialize in performance-based nutrition.

GLP-1 medications can be a powerful tool for weight management, but nutrition and lifestyle adjustments are key to long-term success. As a dietitian specializing in weight management, I can help you:
Optimize Your Nutrition – Ensure you’re getting the right balance of protein, carbohydrates, fiber, and healthy fats to support muscle retention, energy levels, and metabolic health.
Prevent Common Side Effects – Adjust meal timing, portion sizes, and food choices to reduce nausea, constipation, and digestive discomfort often associated with GLP-1medications.
Support Sustainable Weight Loss – Help you build long-term habits that prevent weight regain once medication is discontinued or adjusted.
Improve Relationship with Food – Guide you in mindful eating strategies to manage emotional eating, hunger cues, and satisfaction with smaller portions.
Personalize Meal Planning and Hydration Strategies – Ensure adequate hydration, meal structure, and nutrient intake to support overall well-being.
A GLP-1 medication is just one piece of the puzzle—working with a dietitian can help you maximize its benefits while building habits that support your health for life.
