Private Online Counseling
Personalized, Root-Cause Nutrition Support for Kidney & Overall Health
If you’re ready for support that goes beyond generic handouts and surface-level advice, private counseling is where we work closely together.
My approach blends clinical renal nutrition with functional, root-cause thinking so you can finally understand why your labs look the way they do and feel empowered about what to do next.
This is thoughtful, personalized care with real partnership.
Is Private Counseling Right for You?
Private counseling may be a good fit if you:
- Have chronic kidney disease and want a clear, personalized plant-based diet based on your labs, lifestyle, and medical history.
- Are balancing CKD with other conditions and need an integrated approach.
- Feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice and want clarity you can trust.
- Want to understand your labs and confidently track progress over time.
- Value collaboration, education, and sustainable habits over rigid food rules.
- Are ready to build a way of eating that supports your long-term health and quality of life.
How We Work Together
Private counseling is fully individualized and will include:
- A comprehensive nutrition assessment & follow-up assessment, as needed
- Review of labs, medical history, diet preferences, lifestyle habits, and symptoms
- Personalized nutrition strategies based on kidney function, labs, and your lifestyle
- Education so you understand the why behind your recommendations
- Practical meal and habit guidance you can actually sustain
- Ongoing adjustments as labs, symptoms, or goals change
Most clients with one comprehensive initial session, followed by individualized follow-up visits based on their needs and goals.
On average, clients work with me for 2-4 sessions, though some benefit from fewer visits and others choose periodic check-ins as needed in the future.
Our goal is not perfection – it’s clarity, confidence, and forward progress.
