Nutrition Counseling
with Katy
Registered Dietitian providing
medical nutrition therapy for all ages
How can a Registered Dietitian help me?
Are you or your family wanting to eat healthier, but feeling overwhelmed by the information out there and not sure where to start? This is where I come in! As a registered dietitian, I use scientific data to help adults and children find the foods and meal plan that meet their needs. You will gain a deeper understanding of how foods work in your body, which foods are causing your unwanted symptoms, and which foods will help you feel your best. I help you sort through the fads and false claims and focus in on an optimal nutrition plan that’s just right for YOU.
My Nutrition Philosophy
I am weight-inclusive and use a non-diet approach. I promote balanced nutrition without strict rules about what can/cannot be eaten.
- Weight inclusive: I focus on behaviors and objective health data, rather than weight (Weight is not a behavior!) People of all body sizes can improve their health and well-being.
- Non-diet: The word “diet” simply refers to the pattern of foods and beverages you routinely consume. I can help you determine the foods and eating pattern that make you feel your best. I do not, however, “prescribe” meal plans, weight loss diets, or restrictive fad diets.
Holistic approach: The foods you eat are just one aspect of your overall health. I also explore the impact of sleep, exercise, stress and other lifestyle habits that may be impacting your health.
We live in a weight obsessed culture. You might be skeptical if this approach will work for you- that’s ok. We will talk about this as we work together, helping you find a healthy relationship with food and fitness.
