WHAT TO EXPECT FROM NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING

Your first session will be scheduled as an initial nutrition assessment and will last approximately 90 minutes. During this session, Information about your personal nutrition history and physical health will be gathered, and you will be asked questions which will help me determine how best to meet your needs. You will usually be asked to share your present eating habits, food, eating and weight history, dieting history, medical concerns and symptoms, activity level, as well as your personal goals and questions. With your input, I will help you construct an eating plan and set  realistic goal(s) that can be met before our next visit.  

Follow-up sessions are scheduled as needed, and consultations usually range from 30 - 45 minutes per session. Session frequency will vary depending on your situation and nutritional goals. Some people find they want sessions weekly, some every other week, and some only once a month or by phone*. Each session will focus on the progress one made with the previous session’s goals and the formation of realistic goals for future visits.

* The appropriateness of phone sessions is determined by Nancy.
