Hi! I’m Lauren, your period dietitian. I help women in their 20s through early 40s regulate their periods, ease frustrating PMS, and boost their energy and fertility, so they can feel more like themselves again.
My clients are tired of extreme dieting, being told their labs are “normal” when they feel like trash, and that birth control is their only option to regulate hormones and manage symptoms until they want to get pregnant. I get it, which is why we do things a bit different around here.

At our first session, the average person tells me "I know what I need to do, I just wish I had the willpower to do it." Many rely on sheer willpower to accomplish their goals instead of learning how to make nutrition a simple and enjoyable process. Nutrition is not supposed to be this hard or guilt-inducing. It should primarily mold around your general life and preferences, not the other way around. My main approach to accomplish this is to build a basic understanding on why your old habits do not work, and why these new habits will work.
