She offers competitive rates for nutrition counseling sessions and package deals for multiple visits. Payment plans are available for comprehensive programs. Alexandra believes that financial constraints shouldn't prevent access to quality nutrition care, so she works with clients to find affordable options. She also offers sliding scale rates for students and those with financial hardship. Virtual sessions often provide cost savings by eliminating travel time and expenses.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before your first appointment, keep a detailed food diary for 3-5 days including weekdays and weekends to give Alexandra a clear picture of your current eating patterns. Gather any recent lab results, current medications, and information about previous weight loss attempts. Come prepared to discuss your goals honestly and openly.

Between sessions, implement the strategies you've discussed and keep track of how they're working for you. Don't expect perfection - focus on progress and learning from both successes and challenges. Be patient with yourself as you develop new habits; lasting change takes time. Communicate regularly with Alexandra about what's working and what isn't so she can adjust your plan accordingly. Remember that setbacks are normal and part of the learning process, not reasons to give up on your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your approach different from other nutritionists?

I focus on creating truly personalized plans based on your individual needs, preferences, and lifestyle. Rather than following generic diet templates, I work with you to develop sustainable eating patterns that you actually enjoy and can maintain long-term.

Do you prescribe specific diets like keto or paleo?

I don't believe in one-size-fits-all approaches. Instead, I work with you to find eating patterns that work for your body, preferences, and goals, which might incorporate elements from various nutritional approaches.

Can you help with emotional eating and food relationship issues?

Absolutely. Much of my work involves helping clients understand and improve their relationship with food. We'll work on identifying triggers, developing coping strategies, and creating a healthier emotional connection to eating.

How quickly can I expect to see results?

Many clients notice improvements in energy and digestion within 2-3 weeks. Weight loss typically becomes apparent within 4-6 weeks, but the timeline varies based on individual factors and goals.

Do you work with people who have medical conditions?

Yes, I have extensive experience with medical nutrition therapy for diabetes, heart disease, PCOS, and other conditions. I'll coordinate with your healthcare providers to ensure your nutrition plan supports your overall health.

What if I've tried many diets before without success?

That's exactly why my approach is different. We'll explore why previous attempts didn't work and create a sustainable plan that addresses those specific challenges. The goal is lifestyle change, not another temporary diet.

Do you offer virtual consultations?

Yes, I offer both in-person and virtual sessions. Many clients find virtual consultations convenient and just as effective as in-person meetings. We can also combine both formats based on your preferences.

How often will we meet, and for how long?

Initially, we typically meet every 2 weeks for the first 1-2 months, then monthly as you become more confident with your plan. The total duration depends on your goals, but most clients work with me for 6-12 months.
