Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a nutritionist and a registered dietitian?

Registered dietitians have completed accredited education, supervised practice, and passed a national exam. We can provide medical nutrition therapy and work with healthcare providers in ways that unlicensed nutritionists cannot.

Will my insurance cover nutrition counseling?

Many insurance plans cover nutrition counseling by registered dietitians, especially for medical conditions like diabetes or heart disease. We can verify your benefits and provide necessary documentation.

Do I have to follow a specific diet plan?

No, we don't use restrictive diet plans. Instead, we help you modify your current eating patterns to be healthier and more sustainable while accommodating your preferences and lifestyle.

Can you help with emotional eating issues?

Yes, we address emotional eating patterns and help develop alternative coping strategies. While we're not therapists, we can work with mental health providers when needed.

How long does it typically take to see results?

Many clients notice improvements in energy and eating patterns within a few weeks. Sustainable weight loss typically occurs gradually over several months as new habits become established.

Can you work with my doctor's recommendations?

Absolutely. We often coordinate with physicians and other healthcare providers to ensure our nutrition recommendations support your overall medical care and treatment goals.

Do you provide meal plans and recipes?

We provide meal planning guidance and recipe suggestions tailored to your preferences and needs. We focus on teaching you how to create your own sustainable meal patterns.

What if I have food allergies or dietary restrictions?
