How can nutritional counseling improve my health?

Diet and weight play crucial roles in preventing many chronic diseases and health concerns, including:

If you have a chronic disease or are at an increased risk, Kelly can develop a tailored dietary plan that aligns with your health goals and addresses challenges related to your condition.

What does nutritional counseling involve?

Nutritional counseling begins with a one-on-one consultation. During this initial telehealth consultation, Kelly comprehensively assesses your current dietary habits, lifestyle, health history, and specific nutritional needs. 

This collaborative discussion allows her to understand your health goals, any existing health conditions, and your preferences.

After the assessment, Kelly provides education on nutritional principles, discusses dietary recommendations, and offers practical strategies to integrate healthier choices into your daily life. This may include guidance on portion control, meal planning, food choices, and lifestyle adjustments.

Follow-up sessions allow for ongoing adjustments to the plan based on your changing needs and help ensure that you receive the necessary guidance to achieve and maintain your health goals.
