What to Expect

Your journey begins with a comprehensive 90-minute initial consultation where we review your medical history, current eating patterns, lifestyle factors, and specific goals. We conduct body composition analysis and may recommend lab work to identify any underlying metabolic issues. Based on this assessment, we create your personalized nutrition and wellness plan.

Follow-up appointments occur bi-weekly initially, then monthly as you progress. Each session includes progress review, plan adjustments, and ongoing education. We provide continuous support through email check-ins and have resources available between appointments to keep you motivated and on track.

Why Choose Charlene Wang Nutrition & Wellness

What sets us apart is our personalized, science-based approach that goes beyond simple calorie counting. Charlene's extensive background in both traditional nutrition and naturopathic medicine allows for a truly integrative treatment plan. We focus on sustainable changes that become lifelong habits rather than restrictive diets that lead to yo-yo weight cycling.

Our clients appreciate the supportive, non-judgmental environment where they can openly discuss their challenges with food and weight. We take time to understand your unique circumstances and create realistic plans that fit your life. Many clients have successfully maintained their weight loss for years after completing our program, which speaks to the effectiveness of our holistic approach.

Insurance & Pricing

Nutritional counseling sessions range from $125-175 per visit, with initial consultations typically on the higher end due to their comprehensive nature. We offer package deals for multiple sessions that provide better value for ongoing care. While we don't directly accept insurance, we can provide documentation for potential reimbursement through HSA/FSA accounts or if your plan covers nutritional counseling. Some clients have successfully obtained partial reimbursement through their insurance providers.

First-Time Patient Tips

Come prepared for your first visit with a food diary from the past week and a list of any medications or supplements you're currently taking. Be ready to discuss your weight history, previous diet attempts, and what challenges you've faced. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing for body composition measurement.

Success in our program requires commitment to making gradual lifestyle changes and attending regular follow-up appointments. Most clients see initial results within 2-4 weeks, with significant progress typically occurring over 3-6 months. We encourage patience with the process, as sustainable weight loss takes time but creates lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from seeing a regular dietitian?

Our approach combines traditional nutrition science with naturopathic principles, addressing hormonal, digestive, and metabolic factors that affect weight. We take more time to understand your individual needs and create truly personalized plans.

Do you prescribe medications for weight loss?

As a nutritionist, I don't prescribe medications. However, I can recommend natural supplements and work with your physician if you're considering medical weight loss options.

How quickly will I see results?

Most clients notice changes in energy and mood within 1-2 weeks, with measurable weight loss typically beginning in weeks 2-4. Sustainable results develop over 3-6 months as new habits become established.

Can you help with emotional eating?

Absolutely. We spend significant time addressing the psychological aspects of eating, including stress eating, food relationships, and developing healthier coping mechanisms.

Do you provide meal plans?

Yes, all clients receive personalized meal plans that account for their food preferences, allergies, schedule, and cooking abilities. Plans are updated regularly based on progress and feedback.

What if I have food allergies or dietary restrictions?

We specialize in creating effective nutrition plans that work within any dietary restrictions, including gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and other special diets.

How often will I need to come in?

Initially, we typically schedule appointments every 2 weeks, then transition to monthly visits as you progress. The exact frequency depends on your individual needs and preferences.

Can I do virtual consultations?

Yes, we offer virtual consultations for clients throughout Colorado. These sessions are just as effective as in-person visits for ongoing support and plan adjustments.
