Working With Nourished Living

Initial Assessments and Follow Up Visits

Step One ⫸

Initial Assessment

⫸ Initial visits are 60 minutes in length.

⫸ The first half of the appointment, we review and discuss the various aspects that affect your nutritional health.  I will gather information regarding your diet habits, past medical history and social background.  This information allows me to understand possible causes for nutrition issues and helps me focus on how best to improve them.

⫸ The second half of the appointment is spent in nutrition education.  Knowledge is power.  As an active participant in your health, it is important to learn before applying recommendations.  Depending on your individual health concerns, we will review nutrition therapy to improve outcomes.  We will set goals together and review strategies to achieve these goals.

*Due to COVID19, you have the option for your visit to be in-person or via tele-health. 

 

Step Two ⫸

Follow-Up Visits

⫸ Follow up visits are 30 minutes in length. 

⫸ Based on your unique needs, I will recommend a time frame for follow up.  This may be as frequent as every other week or as spread out as every 3 months.  Building new habits, adopting changes and seeing results takes time. 

⫸ Nutrition follow ups are focused on checking in, reviewing what is working, problem solving barriers, and evaluating progress towards your goals.  Everything cannot be learned and mastered from one visit.  Follow ups provide support and accountability while continuing the education process and building on the skills learnt. 

⫸ Areas addressed to improve your nutritional status goes beyond food choices and includes sleep, exercise, hydration, supplements, stress management, and more!

Follow ups may be in person or via tele-health due to Covid19.
