Nutritionists and Dietitians near Ijamsville, MD

Hi, I’m Samantha! I am a registered dietitian in Maryland. I see clients in Greenbelt and Columbia, Maryland, and virtually across the USA! In high school, I had an unhealthy relationship with food and my body image, leading me to follow fad diets for several years.

Because of my own personal health journey, I empathize with people who feel trapped and worried that their health challenges have become the new normal. I support my clients and make their voices heard in order to tackle the health challenge head-on.

I can help address issues such as allergies, asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, female disorders, weight loss (including adult, children and adolescents), gastric reflux,and bowel disorders, just to name a few!

While nutrition fads are ever-changing, I empower clients to trust their bodies and trust their intuitive cues in return for that well-desired and well-deserved health.
