About
Lea is a Registered Dietitian and a Health Coach with over 12 years of experience helping people take small steps toward achieving their health goals. I have spent most of my career in dialysis but have recently been working primarily with weight loss. Lea is passionate about helping you live a happier, healthier lifestyle. As a client of mine, we are a team, we work together to come up with a plan that works best for you.
Approach to Care
Lea believes in an individualized personalized plan of care. She will make sure your needs are addressed in a caring and empathic manner. As your coach and encourager, I love to support your progress along the way. However, Lea believes that this is a two-way street and you have to put in the work to see results. This only works if you do, but Lea is here to hold you accountable and help you make small sustainable changes that will last a lifetime.
What to Expect
In your first session Lea will spend the first 15 -20 minutes getting to know you and why you decided to meet with a dietitian. We will go through a detailed list of what you eat, drink, medications, weight history, any recent labs, what you have tried in the past and ultimately what you are looking to seek in your visits with me going forward. The first session involves mostly your diet and medical history but we will set 3-4 goals in the end for you to follow. Your follow up will include your calories, macros and fluid needs.

In her free time Lea loves spending time with family and friends and her dog Bella. She loves hiking, going for walks outside and going to the beach. She is a single mom with a teenage boy who play football so she loves going to football games and watching football. She also enjoys trying new restaurants, traveling and listening to live music. Lastly, she loves singing shows like American Idol and the Voice. Although unfortunately she was not born with a singing voice - ha ha!
