Insurance Coverage

Prior to your visit, I will review your nutrition counseling coverage with your insurance company. Many of my clients pay $0 out of pocket using their preventative benefits. If you would like to verify your benefits, I will provide an insurance verification sheet for you to call.

Initial Session

60 minutes session

Each nutrition visit is individualized for your or your child’s needs. We can cover any nutrition topic on your mind, from picky eating to breastfeeding support and pre/postpartum nutrition to poor growth to eating disorders. We work together to come up with a realistic plan for you and your family, focusing on your short term and long term goals.

Follow Up Session

40-60 minute sessions

Each follow-up visit we will review goals that were previously set and discuss what is working for your family. We will review any lab work, necessary supplements, and diet review. I collaborate with you or your child’s medical and mental health team to make a comprehensive plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A dietitian has at least a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition from a University approved by the Accredited Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND), completes an accredited year long internship and then must pass the national licensing examination to acquire the RD credentials.
