About Caitlin

Nutrition has been the thread through my career and my kitchen. With 13 years as a registered dietitian, I draw on experience in hospitals, outpatient clinics, private practice, community health, and sports nutrition. I earned a BS in Nutrition Science from the University of New Hampshire and practice as an RD, LDN. Outside of work I love cooking and trying new recipes, reading, skiing, and exploring the outdoors with my family. My passion is helping people meet health goals in manageable, sustainable ways that let them enjoy food while fueling their lives.

Approach to care

I combine science and empathy to create nutrition plans that fit your life, not the other way around. My work is evidence-based and educational, so we'll look at the research and translate it into clear, practical steps. I take a weight-neutral, behavior-focused stance, rejecting diet culture and prioritizing sustainable habits. Together we'll address the whole person, including mental and emotional factors, and set direct, achievable actions that build lasting change without judgment.

Your first session with Caitlin

Think of the first visit as a collaborative deep dive into your relationship with food and what you want to change. We'll talk about routines, wins, struggles, and any medical or lifestyle factors that matter. Expect a judgment-free conversation where we identify a couple of short-term, actionable goals to get started. You don't need to have answers or perfect records—just bring your questions and we'll figure out sensible next steps together.
