Registered Dietitian & Founder of
Start With One Bite Ltd
Nutrition shouldn't feel like a constant struggle with food.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed by strict rules, conflicting wellness trends, or restrictive advice that leaves you feeling disconnected from your body, you're not alone.
I founded Start With One Bite to offer a grounded, supportive space focused on genuine well-being rather than diet culture.
I believe that true, lasting health isn't built on extreme restriction—it's built on small, consistent daily shifts that fit into your real life. Food is meant to nourish your body and bring joy to your day.
Together, we'll strip away the noise and build a practical path forward—one step, and one bite, at a time.
Grounded in Science, Tailored to You
As a Registered and Licensed Dietitian working in hospital care and private practice, I bring evidence-based medical nutrition knowledge into every session—translated into practical, real-world advice you can actually use.

When I’m not working with clients, you can usually find me:
Relaxing at home, reading or crocheting
Spending time with my family
Finding simple ways to enjoy good food and daily balance
All sessions are conducted securely via video telehealth through our HIPAA-compliant client portal, Practice Better. You can join your appointment from the comfort of your home using a computer, tablet, or smartphone.
We do not offer rigid meal plans, strict calorie counting, or quick-fix diets. Our focus is on sustainable, evidence-based habit shifts that fit into your real life. We work together to build practical strategies that nourish your body and foster a healthy, balanced relationship with food—without sacrificing the joy of eating.
A discovery call is a quick, 15-minute chat where we’ll discuss your goals, answer any questions you have about my approach, and make sure 1-on-1 counseling is the right fit for you before committing to a full session.
No, a physician’s referral is not required to schedule a consultation or discovery call. However, if you plan to submit superbills to your insurance or use an HSA/FSA, checking with your provider beforehand is always recommended.
Start With One Bite Ltd is an out-of-network, self-pay practice and does not bill insurance directly. We accept all major credit cards, as well as HSA and FSA cards. Upon request, we can provide an itemized receipt (superbill) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Yes! Nutrition counseling provided by a Registered Dietitian is an eligible medical expense under most HSA and FSA plans. You can pay directly using your HSA or FSA debit card at checkout. (We recommend checking with your plan provider to confirm if your specific account requires a doctor's referral for reimbursement).
You don't have to figure it all out today—you just have to start with one bite.
