LET'S TALK ABOUT

Are you trying to improve your nutrition or metabolic health by advancing your nutrition knowledge but finding it difficult to form healthy eating habits? Or, Are you very knowledgeable about nutrition and what you "should do" to improve your health outcomes but struggle to maintain healthy eating changes? I understand. 

​

Most of my patients are fairly informed about nutrition when they reach out to me but express difficulty implementing nutrition recommendations and sticking to long-term nutrition-related behaviours due to various barriers.

HOW I DO IT

01.
ASSESSMENT OF CURRENT STAGE OF CHANGE 

For most people, when it comes to their nutrition/ dietary habits, change does not happen overnight. Instead, real change occurs over time through various stages. When a person is seeking support to make healthy diet and lifestyle changes, gaining a complete understanding of their readiness to change is an essential step to choosing the appropriate interventions to support them through the process of change. 

02.
MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING 

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is an evidence-based approach to support behaviour change by helping clients feel empowered and free to make choices that best align with their goals, values, and lifestyles. Two significant factors involved in making changes include importance and self-efficacy (one's confidence in their ability to make a change - based on past experiences, support networks, resources, social influences, current psychological & emotional state and more). MI involves using a  collaborative style of communication to help clients identify what is important to them and increase their self-efficacy as they work towards their nutrition-related/ health goals.

SMART ACTION- PLANNING

Just setting a goal rarely helps with nutrition-related and lifestyle behaviour change. Best practice guidelines often recommend that goals be very specific and actionable. Knowing exactly what to do, along with when and where to insert new eating behaviours, can support new actions over time. However, making habits stick can be very difficult. This is because the neuronal connections in our brains are strongest for those behaviours we have been practicing for years and very weak for the new behaviours we are trying to establish. Setting SMART Action plans and inserting new action around already established habits can be helpful. I would love to show you how!  

EATING HABITS

Eating habits: learned conscious, collective, and repetitive behaviours, which lead people to select, consume and use certain foods or ways of eating, in  response to social, psychological, socioeconomic and cultural influences

Hello

I am a Registered Dietitian passionate about helping people develop long-term healthy eating habits.

 

I have worked in my career field for over a decade, and although helping my patients make informed choices with sound nutrition education is an important part of my practice, implementing skills in nutrition-related behaviour change strategies has been a key factor in driving positive long-term health outcomes for my patients.

 

Most of my patients are fairly informed about nutrition when they reach out to me but express difficulty implementing nutrition recommendations and sticking to long-term nutrition-related behaviours due to various barriers.

Using nutrition-related behaviour change strategies, I help clients who are tired of "dieting" build consistent healthy eating habits, improve metabolic health and make long-term lifestyle changes so that they feel their best, eat with confidence and optimize their health for years to come.
