Health Professionals near Gaston County, NC

I am a Registered Dietitian with a BS in Applied Nutrition from Appalachian State University and completed my Dietetic Internship at the University of Oklahoma. I am huge believer that setting small incremental realistic goals are imperative for success. When I'm not working with clients you can find me at farmer’s markets, baking new recipes, taking my lab on walks, planning my next day-trip adventure, and spending time with friends and family!

The perfect patient for me is someone who's open-minded and committed to their own well-being. Whether exploring healthcare options for the first time or looking for alternative treatments, they understand the importance of both physical and mental health. They value the sliding scale pricing and inclusive approach at The Point, seeing it as an extension of their own values. Not seeking a quick fix but a long-term wellness journey, they are proactive, engaged, and ready to collaborate on a personalized treatment plan. They aren't just a patient; they become a vital part of our holistic wellness community.

Are you seeking clarity in the complex nutrition-health space? Perhaps you've tried various dietitians, diets, or treatment programs, yet lasting peace with food and self still feels out of reach. You might feel disconnected from your body, carrying years of shame and self-blame, but still desire to feel 'at home' within yourself. Your goals echo a desire to mend your relationship with food and exercise with alignment that is rooted in internal trust and understanding, not external validation. True healing and happiness can't be found in another diet; it's an embodied journey back to self—safety and self-compassion intertwined.
