My husband and I worked with Laura as we prepared for our wedding a couple years ago and we maintain what we learned to this day. Working with her was FANTASTIC. We both knew we weren't eating very well and that we wanted to change our approach to nutrition, but there are so many sources online, they all have conflicting information, and we didn't know where to start. When we met with Laura, she was patient, gave us information and tools that fit our needs, and helped us set up a "nutrition plan" that worked for us and our busy schedules. While we met with her in 2019, we still use our learnings to this day. We still do meal planning the way she suggested, we still prepare some of the recipes she suggested, and we find ourselves saying, "remember what Laura said about XYZ." If you're looking for a way to revamp your approach to food and nutrition, I HIGHLY recommend working with Laura. She will help you develop good nutrition habits for life. read more

When I met Laura, I was at my wit's end. I had a major medical episode earlier that year that has had long-term impact on my digestive health. I was frustrated, depressed, annoyed, and just simply hated food. Everything I ate had an adverse reaction, and i didn't know what I was supposed to do. Doctors were no help. Their solution is either attend a group nutrition class they offered (not specific to my needs), or just simply don't eat/drink things that are bothering you. ... Which really was everything. Prior to working with Laura, I interviewed 3-4 nutritionists/RDs. I explained the challenges I had along with my health challenges. Almost all of them told me they wanted me to switch to the fodmap diet right away. This is where Laura stood out. She actually listened, asked me to provide a food log for 4-5 days so she could understand my eating habits and how the food i was eating was making me feel. She carved out a plan that suited me. Fit my schedule. I still could eat things I liked or found a substitute. But most importantly, she helped me understand food, what i needed, and how to achieve my goals. It was a change, but one that worked and still works for me. I don't resent the things i've had to give up because i now understand how it affects me. The knowledge she shared has helped me recognize symptoms and avoid major pain and suffering. I highly recommend Laura. She is very knowledgeable, professional, works with you to fit your lifestyle. Change is necessary sometimes, but it doesn't mean you have to suffer and be miserable. Investing in Laura is a lifetime investment in yourself. Her solutions aren't a bandaid fix and she doesn't follow fads. She will guide you to healthier choices to meet your goals. read more

Laura was a godsend to my family! My picky-eating 5-year-old son was not growing well and his endocrinologist stressed that he needed to consume more calories. I tried stuffing him with milkshakes and cereal, but I knew that this was not a healthy way of eating that would help him establish good habits for life. I called Laura for advice. She was extremely patient with and very supportive of me. She was calm and reassuring, and had creative, affordable suggestions for ways to sneak protein into my son's diet in ways he liked (he rejects almost all meat and fish). She gave me specific recommendations for affordable, accessible foods, such as Trader Joe's high-protein pasta, as well as receipes for meals that were easy to prepare, such as protein shakes and mac n' cheese. She also helped educate me on how much protein and other nutrients my son actually needed, and what it would take to get there, which eased my anxiety about what I had to accomplish. It turned out that a high protein shake in the morning would meet more than half of his protein needs for the day so I didn't have to worry so much about lunch and dinner. Laura has wonderful people skills and is incredibly good at what she does. All in all, she took a lot of stress off of me and our situation and helped my son become a better, more nutritious eater. I'm eternally grateful to her. read more

Laura is wonderful! With her help, I've lost ten pounds and, more importantly, completely revamped my diet in a way that feels sustainable for the long-term. I feel healthier and more confident than I have in years. I came to Laura with a formidable sweet tooth and long-standing emotional attachment to just about everything bad for me. Laura used a detailed questionnaire to identify what I was already doing well, and took time to acknowledge me for that during our first session. She helped me set specific goals and think through the barriers to achieving them. We problem-solved for my sweet tooth, my snacking, nights when I didn't have time to cook, traveling, and visiting family. Laura made sure I was on board with every adjustment to my diet, always asking if I felt nervous about the change and whether it seemed sustainable to me. She gave me simple, clear guidelines to follow that allowed me to incorporate the foods I love into a diet that's good for me. Laura is positive, supportive, and understanding. She genuinely cares about her clients and has both the practical and emotional tools to help her succeed. My work with her has changed my life! read more

I have been very happy with Laura and highly recommend her to help lose weight.

Laura has been the greatest ever and that is the God's honest truth. She taught me new ways to eat along with some tasty recipes. When we met I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and after seeing Laura for awhile I lowered my A1C and am now no longer a diabetic! I am also 100 lbs lighter, thanks Laura! read more
