About

Hi! I’m Carianne, a dietitian-nutrition coach. But what you really need to know is I’m the down-to-earth kind of dietitian who won’t judge you for eating ice cream or drinking wine at girl’s night! It’s my mission to guide you to foods you love while fueling your body to feel your absolute best. That means more comfortable in your clothes, decreased cravings and managing weight gain. I’m passionate about sharing my nutrition knowledge and seeing people succeed with small, realistic changes that will lead to big results. No fad diets here!

Wondering what to expect? We’ll start with a free 15 minute phone call to discuss why you are looking for nutrition counseling. Next you’ll complete an in-depth questionnaire followed by a 60 minute video-chat session with personalized nutrition recommendations. After that we’ll meet for 30 minute follow-up sessions to work towards your goals and keep you on track.

Are you ready to get out of your comfort zone and start making progress on your nutrition journey to the best version of YOU? Message me your “non-negotiable” foods aka something you don’t want to live without (mine is ice cream!) and we’ll discuss how you can fit it in your nutrition plan.


Education and Credentials

  • Registered Dietitian since 2016
  • Worked as Clinical Dietitian in hospital for 5 years
  • Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (Tube feeding and TPN)

Insurance / Direct Billing

Accept private pay and in-network with Anthem BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna and ConnectiCare. Plans often cover at least 1 but up to UNLIMITED nutrition appointments for free or a nominal fee (~$10 or less). I also accept FSA/HSA payment (remember most FSA funds need to be used by the end of the year or they are gone!) If you have another insurance carrier (not listed) and have out-of-network benefits I am able to provide you a superbill (receipt of service) for possible reimbursement. Unsure of your benefits? Just ask so we can find the most affordable option for you!
