Medicaid Nutritionists and Dietitians near Union County, NJ

My goal is to make it 100% easy for you to follow your specified dietary plan and lifestyle changes to meet your goal. I always review your food likes/dislikes, make necessary changes paying attention to your food likes. I believe that good nutrition is the one that is eaten, good diet plan/lifestyle change is the one that is simple and easy to follow for a long time. I use visuals and measures to bring points home and clear, you don't have to take notes, I do give handouts which you might never have to read because my points are always clear.

Making a change that actually sticks can be daunting. Getting healthy can be hard especially when there is so much information out there that is contradicting. My role always begins with being a strong support for anyone taking on the challenge of improving their eating habits, no matter how big or small. We are all human at the end of the day! I combine evidence based nutrition with behavior change strategies to help my clients achieve their goals one step at a time.

I truly believe you have the power to change your life. The goal is to find a balance between all dimensions of nutrition – wellness, exercise, stress management, spirituality, and emotional well-being. Food provides us with one form of nutrition but to ultimately feel fully nourished you must commit to a healthy lifestyle, a fulfilling life purpose, balanced emotions, adequate rest, and always stay focused with a positive attitude. Healing the whole person will allow one to achieve the highest quality of life.

Food/nutrition plays such a big role in our lives. By fully understanding each clients' specific needs, the LBS Nutrition Registered Dietitian's educate, create, and implement appropriate plans that will suit each individual's lifestyle. It is not a "one size fits all" approach. We work very closely with clients through one on one meetings, continuous online communication, offer weigh ins, support groups, cooking events, and more. We offer both in person and virtual visits. Most insurances accepted.

Become Intuitively Nourished and reach your nutrition goals through a food freedom approach.
