As babies learn the skills to eat and develop a relationship with food, it is crucial that parents have the knowledge to create a safe and positive environment for them. I will help you gain the practical skills, the nutrition background and most importantly the confidence to feed your baby with joy.

I do not accept insurance at this time - however, I am an out-of-network provider, meaning I can provide you with a detailed Superbill to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. I also accept HSA and FSA cards, as well as all major credit cards. A limited number of sliding scale spots are available.
What I Offer
I provide coaching and counseling services for:
Infants starting solids
Picky eating in young children
Many families require hands-on support to correct behaviors which can contribute to picky eating and bring joy to the dinner table again. I will develop a personalized plan for your family to help you keep your kiddo safe, happy, and healthy as they eat and grow.
Preventive care through nutrition
Chronic diseases and conditions are some of the biggest trials we can face in our health and nutrition, and usually take a big toll on our day-to-day life and relationships with others. You can take steps now to prevent your current conditions from developing into a chronic disease like diabetes, heart disease, or cancer.
Personalized diet and meal planning
Often half of the battle of nourishing yourself well is the prep! I will help take the guesswork out of recipe and meal planning, help you find foods you’ll actually LIKE to cook and eat, and keep you accountable to your goals.
Disease or weight management
It is never too late to make changes to your nutrition and improve your health, how you feel, and your quality of life. We will work together to make realistic goals that will help you feel your best and change your life for the better.
Programs
Child Strategy Session (FREE)
This free 30-minute session is designed to help you determine what are the root problems in your child’s relationship with food, and who is the appropriate person to help you. With young children it can be unclear whether the problem is nutritional, medical, behavioral, developmental, or multiple factors. I like to meet with parents to see what type of health professional they would most benefit from seeing, and I’ll give you a few tips to get you started.
Adult Strategy Session (FREE)
This free 30-minute session is designed to help you determine next steps for you in your journey to affectionate eating. Whether your goals are weight management, disease prevention, or healing your relationship with food - let’s see if meeting with a dietitian is right for you.
Solid Start-Up Package
This 3-session package is designed for parents who have questions about their child’s nutrition and mealtime routines and need short-term consultation. We will develop a plan for introducing solid foods to your child, or for making changes to your mealtime routines to improve your child’s eating habits and behaviors.
Affectionate Eaters Ed
My 10-week signature program is designed for parents who want to give their child (age 0-10) the best foundation for a positive relationship with food, or who are currently working through food and nutrition issues. In this 1-on-1 program we will develop a game plan together from start to finish to help you achieve your goals for your child’s health and well-being.
Adult Start-Up Package
This 4-session package is for adults who want to focus on particular nutrition and wellness goals related to disease prevention. We start with a minimum of 4 sessions and will add on sessions later as needed. As any nutrition professional will tell you, most people need at least 3 months to see significant changes in their nutrition and lifestyle habits.
