  • Nutrition can play an important role in supporting metabolism, muscle maintenance, blood sugar balance, satiety, and healthy eating habits during menopause. My approach focuses on realistic and sustainable strategies rather than restrictive dieting.

  • Protein needs vary depending on age, activity level, and health goals. Many women benefit from increasing protein intake during perimenopause and menopause to support muscle health, metabolism, strength, and fullness. However, how much you need is unique to your physiological profile and can be determined during consultation.

  • Meal plans DON’T work. Rather than strict meal plans, I focus on practical nutrition guidance and realistic habits that fit your lifestyle. Sessions may include meal ideas, balanced meal structure, grocery guidance, and personalized recommendations. I don’t want you to feel like you need lifelong coaching — I want you to feel confident and supported enough to eventually do this on your own.

  • Sessions may include:

    • Nutrition assessment

    • Review of symptoms and health history

    • Personalized nutrition recommendations

    • Blood sugar balancing strategies

    • Protein and fiber guidance

    • Goal setting

    • Lifestyle and habit support

    • Supplement and hydration education

  • I currently offer private pay services in order to provide more personalized, flexible care without the limitations often required by insurance plans. By remaining private pay, I’m able to spend more time focusing on individualized nutrition support, education, and client care rather than insurance billing and administrative paperwork.

    Please contact me regarding superbills, which may be submitted to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement depending on your plan. HSA/FSA payments may also be accepted.

  • No. My philosophy is centered around realistic, practical nutrition guidance that feels sustainable for everyday life. I believe nutrition should support your health without creating unnecessary stress or guilt around food. I want food to feel enjoyable, rewarding, and guilt-free — because that balance is absolutely achievable with the right professional guidance and support.
