Hi! My name is Maddi and I am a registered dietitian (RD). My motive is not to flip your diet and life upside down and expect you to change everything by our next meeting. No, that is not practical at all; I will meet you where you are. As we work together, I will listen to you first and foremost, and then dive into the nutritional aspects of the issues at hand. I will help you understand and I will educate you, rather than telling you what to do without an explanation… Nobody appreciates that!
I am personable and love to hold a meaningful conversation. I will never condemn you for eating “unhealthy” or not reaching all of your goals. I am NOT the food police... You are not perfect and neither am I! I have nothing but grace to offer to you. I want you to know that I am with you and I am for you. I believe in you and I will absolutely hold you accountable. Together we will make manageable changes and improve your health – nothing like the present to begin a new chapter!
I wanted to become an RD because I struggled immensely with my relationship with food for over a decade. As an athlete, it affected my play, but as a person it affected my relationships and ability to “live my life”. I was a slave to the food scale, counting calories, measuring, and restricting my intake. Food was on my mind and my mind was on food. Constantly. I truly understand the struggle. Thankfully, I am now free from the chains food had on me and I want to bring that same freedom and healing to others. Food is nourishing. Healing. Delicious. Not something to manipulate and despise. Trust me!
