This initial consultation covers all areas that affect your child’s overall health. We will discuss their daily diet, food frequency, and medical and social history. We also review past efforts around allergies to see what worked and what did not.
You’ll get tips and strategies based on your child’s medical condition or goals and a basic meal plan.
Follow-up sessions are used to modify and further customize the meal plan according to what your child enjoys and tolerates. Follow-up visits also review progress, answer questions, and address any obstacles that are getting in your way.
The Food Allergy-Safe Home Checklist is a comprehensive guide to creating a safe environment for your food-allergic child. Learn how to set up your kitchen, read labels like a pro, and prevent cross-contact.

Avoidance is the first step in the treatment of food allergies. However, I take a balanced approach that goes beyond avoidance. I want to help you and your child find safe foods and optimize nutrition, eliminate deficiencies, enhance growth and development, and improve the quality of life for your whole family. We will work together to find alternatives and meals everyone in your home can eat.
My practice is judgment-free. I know managing food allergies is hard, and every family is different and has their own needs and priorities. I’m here to support, educate, and provide solutions, not judge or criticize your choices.
Yes. We take the time to get to know your family’s routines, likes and dislikes, and challenges. Our recommendations are tailored to your lifestyle, not generic advice. We consider factors like cultural foods, busy schedules, and picky eaters to create realistic plans.
While online resources can be helpful, they are often generalized or outdated. As a specialist, I provide personalized evidence-based guidance specific to your situation. I stay current with the latest research and can help you make sense of conflicting information to make informed decisions.
I offer in-depth nutrition expertise that complements your doctor’s medical care. I can provide meal planning and cooking tips, help with reading food labels, strategies for eating out safely, and ongoing support as your needs change. My goal is to make living with food allergies more manageable day to day.
Think of it as an investment in your family’s health and quality of life. I can help you avoid costly or dangerous mistakes, reduce anxiety, and save time in the long run. Many clients find a few targeted sessions provide lasting benefits.
Every child and family is unique, but many clients see more confidence and improvements in their child’s nutrition and overall health within the first month. Long-term results such as reduced anxiety often take 3-6 months of consistent implementation.
I offer virtual consultations for individual meetings and my Allergy Management and Nutritional Support packages. The Food Allergy-Safe Home Consultation is an in-person service that provides the most effective assessment and guidance.
If your child has been diagnosed with food allergies, especially to common allergens such as milk, eggs, or wheat, you want to ensure they get all the necessary nutrients. Signs your child may need nutritional support include slow growth, fatigue, frequent illnesses, ongoing GI issues, or a very limited diet.
Yes, I can work with multiple food allergies and create balanced meal plans that meet all your child’s nutritional needs. My individualized approach means even with multiple restrictions, your child can have a varied and nutritious diet.
I do not currently accept insurance, but we can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Check with your insurance provider to see if they cover medical nutrition therapy for food allergies.
As a Food Allergy Certified Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I attend professional conferences, take continuing education courses, follow current research, and stay connected with food allergy organizations. This indicates my guidance is always based on the latest evidence-based practices.
