I provide personal and individual nutrition education and counseling on a variety of health and nutrition issues. My approach is simple, yet effective. I work with the individual to assist in empowering them to make healthier eating habits and lifestyle changes. It definitely is not easy to take charge of your health on your own, but can be done when you have the right skills, information, and motivation. My goal in working with people is for them to eat healthier, feel better and to embrace eating as an enjoyable experience.

Hi, I’m Kristie. I'm a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Eating Disorders Specialist. I'm passionate about helping others nourish their bodies, minds, and spirits in ways that are rewarding and without judgment. I provide weight-neutral nutrition support to help clients heal from eating disorders and chronic dieting, PCOS and women’s health.

No more chronic dieting! Weight loss has been overly prescribed as a blanket solution to every health problem you can imagine. However, fad diets and quick fixes can leave you with a slower metabolism and further gut imbalances. Every body is different, so a one-size-fits-all diet will not cut it. I work with you to help create healthy lifestyle changes that align with your values and lifestyle to feel your healthiest. No judgment or shaming. No one knows your body as well as you! I am here to help you with whatever you need.

Wholistic, realistic, and sustainable. These three words are at the core of how I live, why I became a registered dietitian, and how I engage with my clients. I have a unique perspective as a registered dietitian: There are a limited number of male dietitians, I am a husband, a father, and significant life experience that allows me to truly understand client’s situations, and provide wholistic, realistic, and sustainable changes that can improve not only their physical health, but their mental and emotional health as well.

90% of health conditions and diseases can be prevented by proper nutrition and lifestyle modifications. Not only does management and prevention of chronic health conditions improve the quality and satisfaction of living, it also adds years and saves money later in life. The sooner you take the steps to a healthier life, the sooner you’ll feel better, happier, more energized, and more confident about your appearance. I’m here to help you set the foundation of a more fulfilling life you can enjoy with family and friends in years to come!
