About Akua
I’ve worked with individuals and families from diverse backgrounds across all stages of life. My training includes maternal and child nutrition, breastfeeding support, weight management, and diabetes management. I’m committed to providing practical, personalized guidance that helps people build sustainable habits and feel confident in their health
Approach to care
I practice from a first‑principles mindset—focusing on the core drivers of health and behavior to create meaningful, lasting change. I use micro‑habits and habit stacking to help individuals build sustainable routines that feel achievable, empowering, and aligned with their goals. My approach blends evidence‑based nutrition with practical behavioral design, partnering with clients to create simple, repeatable actions that lead to long‑term wellness.
Your first session with Akua
In our first session, I focus on getting to know you—your health goals, your past experiences, and what has helped or challenged you before. We’ll explore your daily routines, your learning style, and what support feels most natural to you. Together, we’ll identify a few meaningful starting points and outline a personalized path that builds on your strengths and sets the stage for sustainable progress
