Here is a summary of what nutrition coaching with a registered holistic nutritionist may entail:

Personalized Assessment: The nutritionist conducts a thorough assessment of the client’s current health, dietary habits, lifestyle, and any specific concerns or goals they may have.

Customized Nutrition Plans: Based on the assessment, the nutritionist develops a personalized nutrition plan. This plan may include recommendations for specific foods, dietary changes, supplements, and habit and lifestyle modifications.

Holistic Approach: Instead of focusing solely on food choices, holistic nutritionists consider the whole person. They explore how factors such as stress, sleep, emotions, and lifestyle choices impact overall well-being.

Education and Empowerment: Nutrition coaching involves educating clients about the principles of holistic nutrition, helping them understand the impact of their choices on their health. The goal is to empower clients to make informed decisions about their diet and lifestyle.

Goal Setting and Monitoring: Clients work with the nutritionist to set realistic and achievable goals. The nutritionist provides ongoing support and monitors progress, making adjustments to the plan as needed.

Emphasis on Whole Foods: Holistic nutritionists often advocate for a whole-foods-based approach, encouraging clients to choose nutrient-dense to support overall health while also incorporating foods you love to find a sustainable & realistic way of nourishing your body.

Lifestyle Integration: Beyond dietary recommendations, holistic nutritionists may provide guidance on stress management, sleep hygiene, and other lifestyle factors that contribute to well-being.

Preventive Approach: Holistic nutrition coaching often emphasizes preventive measures to maintain health and address potential imbalances before they develop into more serious issues. We also provide nutrition support based on a variety of health conditions such as chronic pain, insulin resistance, PCOS, and supporting your health through phases of life such as pregnancy, menopause, and into your senior years.

Continued Support: Nutrition coaching is typically an ongoing process with regular check-ins to ensure continued progress and provide ongoing support. Overall, the aim of nutrition coaching with a registered holistic nutritionist is to promote optimal health and well-being by addressing the individual's unique needs in a comprehensive and holistic manner.
